Community News: Halifax-Born, Women-Owned Candle Company Expands Across Atlantic Canada
Burning Flame Candle Company is a Halifax-born, women-owned brand founded by Lauren Burke, with a strong focus on Nova Scotia and local production.
What began as a home-based business has grown into a regional brand through values-led growth, long-standing Atlantic Canadian partnerships, and a commitment to keeping manufacturing local.
In celebration of Kent Building Supplies’ 50th Anniversary, Burning Flame has launched a custom candle collection into 48 Kent locations across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador. The exclusive collection features four province-inspired scents, each hand-poured in Halifax using 100% soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance oils. This milestone reflects the power of women-led entrepreneurship, regional collaboration, and the craftsmanship, care, and community that define Atlantic Canada.
