Goldia Group launches in Tampa with Bunny Hive franchise, Scout Guide acquisition

Goldia Group, a hospitality and community-focused brand collective founded by Tampa Bay native Allie Felix, has officially launched, in Tampa, introducing two new ventures to its portfolio.

The company is bringing The Bunny Hive—a social studio for young children and their caregivers—to the region with locations planned for Odessa, in June 2025 and South Tampa, in early 2026. A third Tampa Bay location is also in the works. The Bunny Hive offers “grown-up and me” classes and events that focus on early childhood development and community connection.

Goldia Group also announced the acquisition of The Scout Guide Tampa and St. Petersburg, a print and digital publication highlighting local businesses. Allison Adams of Oxford Commons previously owned the guide.

Felix, who formerly held roles at Embarc Collective, Draper University and Work-Bench, said Goldia Group will focus on developing brands that reflect the needs and values of Tampa Bay’s communities.

“Our goal is to bring relevant, elevated brands to the area—brands that people not only want, but need,” Felix said.
