When most 13-year-olds want some extra spending money they cut grass, wash cars, or sell lemonade. Hart Main did something much more innovative. He realized that most candles are positioned toward women. The smells are “womanly” the candles are generally pink, purple, or light blue. Hart created a solution to this problem, Man-Cans. Man-Cans has created a candle for men. The scents are “manly” and they are packaged in soup cans. Some of their most “manly” smells are gun powder, grandpa’s pipe, and cigar just to name a few.

His candles are being made by Beaver Creek Candle Co. and Main sells them on their website (which is linked below) and at 150 retailers all over the nation. Also, his price point is shockingly low at five dollars for most candles and ten dollars for specialty candles, like “2020: the year that stinks.” His company makes a good profit; however, they do much more than that; they give back. Man-Cans has donated 100,000 cans of soup and 35,000 dollars to over 20 soup kitchens in multiple states. On top of Main’s great philanthropic efforts, he is also furthering his education.

While building his business Hart Main has stayed in school, and when he was 17 years old, he decided that he would like to continue his education. So, he decided to attend college and continue growing his business. He also said that instead of spending his profit on something fun, he will use it to graduate debt free. Hart Main, is a very impressive young entrepreneur because he saw a hole in the market, filled it, and is using his profit to do good while furthering his education.
