International Home + Housewares Show exhibitors to be featured on ‘The Big Pitch’

Several exhibitors from the 2015 International Home + Housewares Show are being featured on “The Big Pitch,” a new TV program from Kevin Harrington of “Shark Tank” fame.

Harrington and his crew filmed product pitches from 25 exhibitors during the Home + Housewares Show last March in Chicago and then selected 11 that were the best-of-the-best, according to “Big Pitch” producers. The program airs on Fox Business Network.

The first Housewares Show program aired July 25 and included FlexiSnake Inc., Handle Hands, Work Safe Technology Corp. and Brod & Taylor. The next program will air Saturday, Aug. 1 at 5:30 p.m. EDT on Fox Business Network and feature eNNOVEA, Rice Cube Pty Ltd., Comadeco Canada Inc., Krevare LLC, L’Chef and Lena Fiore, Inc. dba Toilet Tattoos. Consumers can purchase the products shown via the program’s website or from their local retailers.

“We filmed more than two dozen pitches at the International Home + Housewares Show and saw a remarkable array of products across a number of categories — enough to create two separate episodes of ‘The Big Pitch.’ That’s never happened before, and it’s a testament to the spirit of innovation in this industry and at this Show,” Harrington said.
