The company sells 700,000 containers of honey per year, which is 350,000 pounds of honey. An example is Tupelo Honey: bees are moved to the area where the Tupelo tree blooms, and the resulting honey is from that flower only. The Savannah Bee Company sells several different types of honey, from nectar that bees collect from one flower. The Savannah Bee Company is referred to as a 'major player in the honey market'. īy 2019 the company had opened 14 stores in the United States, with multiple stores in Tennessee, South Carolina, and Georgia, as well as stores in Arizona, Connecticut, Colorado, and Florida.

In 2013 the company's online sales of honey, health and other products grossed $1.35 million. In 2014 the Savannah Bee Company featured in Google's economic report. From those bees the estimate is that there are now 15 hives. In 6 months the bee keepers were able to begin harvesting honey. In 2015 Dennard received a permit from the Bahamian government to bring 12 bee hives to the Bahamas. There are now 320 schools in all 50 states which have bee hives. He created a not for profit organization named the 'Bee Cause Project'.

In 2016 the company began to invest in teaching children about bees. ĭennard is concerned with bee conservation and threats to bee populations. Dennard founded the Savannah Bee Company 3 years later, in 2002. He was a beekeeper, and in 1999 his Tupelo Honey was sold in a friend's Savannah Georgia store.
