HTeaO has entered the state of Colorado with a location in Loveland, according to a press release.

The store will be owned and operated by Mandy and Nobby Grona under NOCO Tea Company LLC.

"We are thrilled to bring HTeaO to Colorado," Shane Clark, HTeaO CDO, said in the release. "As we continue to grow, our focus remains on partnering with franchisees and communities that share our values of quality, hospitality and connection. Loveland is the perfect place to introduce our ultra-premium iced tea, and we look forward to becoming a local favorite while staying true to our mission to 'Brew Purpose' in every neighborhood we serve."

Mandy Grona said operations are more than opening a store.

For us, bringing HTeaO to Colorado is about more than just opening a store; it's about becoming part of a thriving community and sharing a brand we deeply believe in," she said in the release. "Loveland is a dynamic, welcoming city, and we are honored to be the first to introduce HTeaO here. Bringing a taste of Texas to Colorado is an exciting milestone for us, and we can't wait to share the HTeaO experience with our friends and neighbors."

"Entering a new market requires the right franchise partners — people who not only love and understand our brand but also have a deep connection to their community. Mandy and Nobby's passion and dedication will pave the way for future HTeaO openings in Colorado, making this much more than just a store launch; it's the beginning of something truly special," Clark said in the release

In January 2023, HTeaO announced a minority partnership with two Dallas-based private equity firms, Crux Capital and Trive Capital, signaling a strategic move for stable expansion. Hitting a significant milestone of 100 locations in early 2024, HTeaO is on the path of continued growth.
