It came as a surprise. When I answered the phone that morning and the person on the other end said that she was a writer for Business Week in New York, that Leikam Enterprises and our Oven Claw Pro was chosen to be included in their feature “America’s Most Promising Startups.” At first I couldn’t say anything. She asked if I had a little time for an interview and I replied, “Sure.” Once I’d supplied the information she asked whether I had a picture of myself using the Oven Claw Pro. I told her that I would get one for her. What a scramble that was.

 

With everything accomplished, we moved ahead and waited. This morning (Tuesday, April 07, 2009) I was advised that the article about our company had been published in Business Week’s America’s Most Promising Startups . The article can be read online and there’s even a picture of me using the Oven Claw Pro. In part the article reads, “Although there are other similar devices on the market, Leikam, 68, says the Oven Claw is sturdier and better designed. The 18-inch long grabber can easily extract a cooked turkey from the oven without making a cook reach her arm inside (and possibly be burned).”
