Back in 2005, scientists found that on average, we have around 60,000 thoughts a day. What shocked me, however, was their discovery that nearly 80% of those thoughts are negative, and 95% were repetitive.

That, my friends, is why we created ZOX.

ZOX are collectible bracelets with awesome little words of encouragement hidden on the inside.

They're super comfortable, reversible, and made using polyester milled from recycled water bottles. With over 100 different designs to choose from, I'm confident your customers will find the perfect reminder for whatever they're going through.

For the first ten years of our company, we focused solely on building up our brand's identity and creating a loyal community. During that time, thousands of stores emailed us asking when we'd make the move into retail(literally, we still have the waiting list). Still we held off on that as we felt we needed to grow our online presence and become more established before making that jump.

As of April 2022, we decided to dip our toes into selling wholesale, we emailed a small portion of the folks from our waiting list who wanted to sell our items, and it was a huge success for the ones we selected.

Since then, we've begun to slowly test out new ideas that we've had and continued to tweak what we're doing based on the feedback we've received from the few stores we allowed to sell our items. We even went to our very first tradeshow to test the waters and see what other people who had never heard of us, thought about our product and our mission. Boy, was it a successful trip! We were consistently the busiest booth in our entire area, so much so that it got to the point where we had such long lines forming that people were spilling into other booths near us. We even called in for backups and flew out another team member the following day to help out for the rest of the show.

Today, with more than 8,000,000 uplifting reminders sold, we're making our retail accessible to more stores. While we still do have an intense vetting process that our team does on the backend, we are now accepting new applications for stores to carry our products. At this time, we are only allowing our products to be sold in brick-and-mortar stores; if you have an online store too, that is fine, but we will not be able to have you sell ZOX via the online site.

In under a year, we've grown to over 200 amazing stores carrying our products. One of the highlights has been releasing what we call 'Retail Exclusives'. These items are incredibly sought after due to only being able to find them in person. We have received numerous messages from customers asking where to find them, as they're willing to go on road trips just to find the ones they don't have. We also have heard from multiple retailers telling us they met customers who drove over an hour to their store just because they heard they had some of the retail exclusives. It's gotten so intense at some stores that they had to limit how many exclusives someone can buy!

We're excited about the potential of you joining us on this journey to change the world with kind words. My brothers and I genuinely believe in what we are doing and the positive effect it can have on the lives around us.
