INDIANAPOLIS, IN — After nearly a decade at their beloved original location on College Avenue, Penn & Beech Candle Co. is excited to announce a move to a brand new, custom-designed space in the iconic Bottleworks District. The new shop, located at 820 Massachusetts Ave., Suite 1320, opens to the public on Saturday, July 19, 2025, with a VIP Preview Night by invitation on Friday, July 18.
“We’ve outgrown our first brick-and-mortar, and while it’s bittersweet to leave our original home, we’ve been admiring the growth of the Bottleworks District for many years and couldn’t pass up the chance to be a part of it,” explains co-founder Brianna Doles. “We’re thrilled to bring our custom fragrance experience to one of Indy’s most historic and vibrant areas.”
The new location features a bold, art-deco-inspired design that reflects the surrounding architecture of Bottleworks, while staying true to Penn & Beech’s clean, minimalist aesthetic. The expanded footprint allows for seating for 39 guests — a 50% increase — plus a private event space ideal for celebrations, corporate groups, and more.
Penn & Beech is known for its “Pour Your Own Candle” experience, where guests blend fragrances with the guidance of scent experts to create custom-scented candles. In addition to the hands-on experience, the shop also offers over 100 pre-poured scents to purchase, ranging from Agave to Yuzu.
Founded in 2017 by sister-in-laws Brianna and Lacey Doles, the brand has grown from a basement hobby into a five-location retail business spanning Indianapolis and Columbus, OH, with a thriving online and wholesale presence. The name “Penn & Beech” pays homage to the streets the founders lived on when the company began.
