There are many things that people enjoy and one common thing is candles. Candles can come in all different scents, wicks, and ingredients. These things make each candle unique, and an all natural soy candle handed poured in Papillion, NE, Italy is definitely unique.
Nic Bianchi received a candle making kit on his twelfth birthday and was hooked from that point on. He kept on creating all natural soy candles and soon afterwards, he introduced his candle business, Bianchi Candle Company. The company did not come as a surprise to his parents because if you rewind to Nic’s younger years, you would be impressed with the young boy. During elementary school, Nic would sell toys to his classmates at recess. Later, he upgraded his little toy business with a catalog and everything was sold with a logo of his creation. He even went the next step and employed two other children as sales reps to help him with his toy business at school. His eagerness to be an entrepreneur expanded as he entered his candle company. The candle making process is more complex than most people think. Besides having a passion for entrepreneurship, Nic enjoys the math and science subjects which is a bonus in his candle making. Much thought goes into the ratios of ingredients and the sizing of the wick to ensure a longer burn and elements of the jar and label will matter in the process since the heat of the flame could destroy them.
Bianchi Candle Company has launched many candles for different occasions or purposes. The motivational candle, Yes You Can candle, and the Bianchi Candle Co, purely luxurious candles, are two of the most popular brands of candles that the company sells. All the candles are natural and without any dyes causing them to be purely white, which when his last name is translated from Italian, it means white. Nic’s story is inspiring for me because he followed his passion which brought him into the world of business.

Yes, this is a very great story and what Nic has done to make his company. Nic followed something that he loved since he was a little boy. This shows people that even the little things people enjoy in life can be created into something for a living. I also love how he uses all nature ingredients to his candles. This makes me feel better actually smelling real natural smells, instead of chemicals. Loved reading this article about Nic and his drive for making candles.
I think this is a really interesting business. Nic’s story about how he started selling toys at recess and where he went from there is very inspiring. I think it is very unique how he was able to incorporate his last name’s meaning (white) into the no-dye candles. This seems like a very successful business.
This is so neat! Again I think something like this company is a great example of innovating in a space that most people would think you could not differentiate in. Talking about how he started and showing that he always was an entrepreneur by selling toys and such is so fun! It just goes to show that people with the entrepreneurial mindset will always create and innovate.
