Get To Know Zenia Horton
1. Zenia can you tell us a bit about businesses?
My name is Zenia Horton and I am the owner /operator a kitchen design business by the name of Zen Design.
Out of my love of design and relationships I founded a loose leaf tea company by the name of XTEA CO.
2. What makes your company unique from others in your industry?
What makes XTEA CO unique is that we only sell premium, artisan and trade tea.

After all, we are a little guy too!3. How do people find out about your businesses?

XTEA CO is located downtown Kitchener in a space called THE UNDERGROUND. It is awesome location as you are part of a community that is constantly creating events and opportunities to be involved in. I also let others share the space with us as well.
5. Do you have one expert tip that you can share?
The one expert tip I would share is that tea does not need artificial seasonings or flavourings to taste amazing if it is good quality tea. Tea can fix anything from digestive problems, low energy, lack of focus, anxiety etc to name a few. My industry is growing very quickly. After water, tea is the most widely consumed beverage in the world. People, especially young people are starting to pay a lot more attention to what they are putting in their bodies. They are starting to understand the health benefits assocociated with tea. Last year, Starbucks dropped more than $600 million dollars to acquire 300 of the Teavana chain stores, 59 of them in Canada.
