Construction Manager

HTeaO is currently seeking a Construction Manager to join our growing team!

HTeaO is a unique franchise specializing in iced tea, founded by Gary & Kim Hutchens in 2009. Starting as a humble venture, it grew from selling flavored iced teas at their burger restaurant, Buns Over Texas, to launching the first dedicated tea store in 2018.

Today, HTeaO is the leading iced tea franchise and is breaking into a niche category within the beverage industry. With a cost-effective business model, the brand operates its own supply chain, significantly lowering the cost of goods. HTeaO serves ultra-premium tea, water and coffee-related products to customers in-store and through a drive-thru. Twenty-six (26) handcrafted flavors of sweetened and unsweetened tea are sold at each location, created with a proprietary water filtration system, and 100% all natural ingredients.
