ABOUT US
Xolo emerges as a bridge between two nations and two lifelong friends, Alex and Gabriela, whose bond dates back to early childhood. Their shared educational journey and close-knit friendship cultivated diverse aspirations, yet a common drive prevailed: a commitment to supporting the most vulnerable.
​
Their quest for collaborative ventures led them to explore numerous possibilities, seeking a business endeavor that resonated with their shared values and allowed them to intertwine their lives once more. Their profound connection now extends beyond friendship to encompass their beloved furry companions.
​
As devoted dog enthusiasts, they embarked on an innovative journey, creating a product that encapsulates their bond, heritage, and profound affection for animals. Xolo transcends mere accessory status; it represents an artistic expression and an embodiment of their heartfelt emotions. It pays homage to the rich cultural heritage of Mexican indigenous communities in its most exquisite form. Moreover, it stands as a purpose-driven enterprise, strategically designed to give back to both Mexico and Canada.
​
A portion of the proceeds is dedicated to supporting the education of artisans' children, nurturing future generations, while an equal share contributes to aiding shelter animals enduring the harsh Canadian winters.
The awe-inspiring souls of our furry companions have ignited an inexplicable longing to spread LOVE. Undeniably, animals exude pure energy and enchantment, serving as our profound teachers. Join us in amplifying their invaluable message through our exquisite collars!"
