Based in NYC, a friend and I founded Grripz™ in April of this year (http://grripz.com). The idea is simple, eliminate sore hands caused by carrying grocery and shopping bags. It was provoked from my personal experience and the idea moved into development when my friend who runs a hackerspace called Alpha One Labs (Brooklyn) became enthusiastic about partnering to develop the product.
The product has improved our lives and we have sold them in-person where we had many encounters with people who immediately loved the idea ranging from kids, the elderly, a psychologist working on a PHD on post traumatic stress disorder, and many other New Yorkers. We have seen people a second time who bought a Grrip who told us "thank you!" Selling them in-person was very encouraging and reinforced to us how important such a simple addition to one's life can be...every little bit counts when it comes to reducing un-needed stress.
Grripz™ Comfort Handle™ is the quick, cheap and easy way to make your life easier when carrying bags or other materials.
