Hey there, nice to meet you!
Exequiel and Cedric here, the founders of Zappyo. We started this amazing journey together one summer night in 2020 while we were stuck in lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic. We wanted to find a way to spread some happiness during these turbulent times. Our friends have always described us as positive and bubbly, and we decided Zappyo would be our way of sharing that energy we actively try to harness within ourselves every single day, with as many people as we can.
Thank you for supporting us and being a part of this adventure in helping us materialize our dream.
We sincerely hope that you join us and feel the Zap!
“Growing up in Argentina, Yerba Mate was always a big part of my everyday life. In fact, it is so much more than just a drink to me. In my life, it represents positive moments, family and union. I’ve always wanted to find a way to introduce this incredible caffeinated leaf, full of health benefits, to the world outside of South America. I’ve always believed people would fall in love with Yerba Mate the way I did and I can’t wait to share this part of my culture"
“The unprecedented global changes to the entertainment industry gave me a chance to focus on my creative and entrepreneurial spirits. After spending the last 10 years as an acrobat with Cirque Du Soleil, I was suddenly forced to pivot and decided to use my creativity to design a brand that would stand out. Though I could no longer perform on stage, I was still determined to entertain and bring joy to the world in new ways. That’s how the idea to create Zappyo came to be.”
Maybe you're wondering how our dream got its name. The formula come to us pretty naturally, just like our Yerba Mate Blends.
Zap + (hap)py + o(Canada) = ZAPPYO
Zap - what started it all...It's about zapping you with energy, after all.
Happy - because our mission is to spread joy and positive energy!
O Canada - well, because it’s our home and native land, and the birthplace of Zappyo.
Et voilà.
