About Us

COMMUNITY GROWTH THROUGH COLLABORATION

We’re creating new models for brand ownership.

Our Story

THREE FOUNDERS, ONE VISION.

Before Mitteo, each of us found our way into the health and wellness space, navigating the challenges of product development, sourcing, branding, web development, and building customer trust. Some of our brands soared, others stumbled, but one truth became clear: the most powerful force in wellness wasn’t ad spend or retail shelf space—it was community trust.

We saw firsthand how creators with real earned trust were shaping behaviors, inspiring commitment, and building long-lasting health rituals, and their audiences were grateful.

THAT’S WHEN SPARKS HIT…

We realized the future of wellness wasn’t just DTC—it is rooted in community and built with purpose. We joined forces to create a platform that connects trusted community leaders with high-quality, high-impact products. Whether we were creating a new product just for them or connecting community leaders with like-minded companies, we were working together to build brand trust at scale.

Together, we’re building the future of health and wellness—one where creators are leaders, customers are community, and we all grow together.
