Why Totem?
Totem’s mission is to embrace sharing and the power of connection by developing attractive and innovative products that create unforgettable moments for people everywhere.
The Stuart Family
The original story that sparked Totem began with a family of four sharing a fajita dinner at a mexican restaurant in Southeast Michigan.
The Stuart family consists of Brian, Breanne, Jordan, and Courtland Kinte. A deep everlasting bond has been instilled through all of them equally. The Stuart's value integrity, creativity, and discipline.
From a young age, Jordan was always taught about the importance of meal time connections. He now believes that the meals the family shared together are the reason for their close bond.
The Stuart's made a pact when their boys were young and around the home. The family promised that they would always eat around the table, have conversations, connect, and learn more about one another.
The Stuart's are passionate about great food, great company, meaningful conversations, and beautiful environments that provide ambience.
Our Movement: As we continued our journey creating Totem axis, we decided that we wanted to give the world more than a product; instead we wanted to give the world a purpose, a feeling of togetherness, a seat at our table of love.
Totem's Mission: When creating our company we envisioned a movement to make the kitchen a better place. There is a plethora of kitchenware companies, but only ours is designed around fostering connection for each one of our products
