A Conversation with Indigenous Youth Entrepreneur
Kylie Landry-Zoe, a Tech 4 Youth Grant recipient and a member of Deh Gáh Got’ie Dene First Nation, is bringing family, culture, and creativity together through her family’s business, The Bebia Cho Company based in Kelowna, British Columbia. Specializing in a family clothing line “from bebia to grandpa,” Kylie is designing apparel that reflects her family’s mission, while celebrating her Indigenous roots and entrepreneurial spirit.
Kylie’s passion for fashion started early. She loves making clothes and debuted her family line at the International Indigenous Fashion Show in Regina on October 11, 2025. Modeling her designs herself, Kylie is taking a bold step into the spotlight, sharing her creations with a wider audience and proudly representing her culture.
The Tech 4 Youth Grant and support from Best Buy Canada has been instrumental in helping Kylie achieve her goals. Kylie received an Apple iPhone 16e, Dell Laptop, selfie stick, and wireless microphone to expand her skills into digital art and media. She’s learning to draw with a tablet, explore video production, and podcasting with guidance from her mother. Her goal is to bring The Bebia Cho Company to life online, creating engaging content for YouTube, TikTok, and other platforms, helping her brand reach even more families.
For Kylie, family is at the heart of her entrepreneurial journey. She emphasizes the importance of working with loved ones: “Create with your family in case you don’t know what to do, they can help you.” Despite being shy, Kylie encourages her friends and family to take chances: “You never know what can happen!”
Kylie Landry-Zoe’s story is a testament to how anything is possible when community and family come together to build something meaningful. As The Bebia Cho Company continues to grow, Kylie is determined to inspire other young Indigenous entrepreneurs to embrace their passions and take bold steps toward their dreams.
