Hi there–
We’re Johanna and Xavier, the faces behind trephor. Our journey began in the mountains of northern Italy, with a shared love for the great outdoors, endurance sport and of course - snacks. Both being designers, we quickly realized that we could harness our creativity and skills to be the change we want to see in endurance sports nutrition. Thus, on a misty trail run in the rugged Canadian Gaspésie the idea for trephor was born.
Johanna
Waterborne Wanderer
Johanna’s curiosity and determination never fail to get the best of her. On a continuous mission to explore new horizons, she dabbles in a new sport every opportunity she gets. Though swimming will always be her #1, you’ll likely find her somewhere between waves, cliffs, trails and powder (why only pick one when you can have them all?) Over time, her countless adventures only deepened her already existing awe of the natural world, inspiring her to advocate for the conservation of the beautiful outdoors that lets her and countless others practice their sport. Through her skills as a graphic designer, she inspires and educates others on the conservation nature.
Xavier
Conqueror of trails
Driven by an insatiable thirst for adventure, Xavier is a force to be reckoned with on both foot and wheel. Through all sorts of terrain, his journey as an ultrarunner, mountainbiker and snowboarder is defined by grit, perseverance, and an unwavering passion for pushing boundaries. Through his adventures and achievements, he inspires others to embrace the wild, push their limits, and cherish the natural world. Whether sharing trail tips, founding a running club or or simply spreading the joy of outdoor exploration, Xavier is a true ambassador for endurance sports. His product-design background enables him to makes his creative visions a reality.
Together, we’re more than just business partners; we’re kindred spirits united by a shared purpose: to inspire others just like ourselves to nurture our sport and protect our playground.
We’re stoked to take you along on our mission to overhaul the sports nutrition industry. Together, we can make a difference, one snack at a time.
Would you like to help us shape the future of endurance sports snacks? Whether you have tips, expertise, or want to support us financially, we'd love to hear from you.
