Leikam Enterprises, LLC Featured as One of Business Week's "America's Most Promising Startups"

    PALO ALTO, CA, April 11, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With the launch of the patented Oven Claw Pro in January 2009, the company's growth has been steady but with the article in Business Week's online department "America's Most Promising Startups" the company expects sales to jump. Company president Bill Leikam said, "This article has the potential to put the Oven Claw Pro on the kitchen utensil map, thus increasing exposure and sales."

Leikam Enterprises, LLC intends to move the oven rack puller from obscurity to a prominent place in kitchens around the world. Although the oven mitt is not going to go away anytime soon, with the advent of the upscale Oven Claw it will reduce wear and tear on them, making them last longer than would ordinarily be possible and help to keep them cleaner. More importantly, however, it makes using a hot oven much safer. Leikam was asked about how much safety value the Oven Claw Pro gives. "I can only tell you what others have told me. Often when I introduce them to the Oven Claw, a person - usually a woman - points to a spot on her arm and says, 'That's where I burned myself ....' It seems as though everyone has a memorable burn." When it comes to people who are handicapped, this is the ideal kitchen utensil. Under ordinary circumstances a person in a wheelchair cannot easily withdraw hot food from the oven. With the full 18 inch extension of one's arm that the Oven Claw Pro provides, a person can confidently withdraw the contents of the oven to a safe distance before picking it up with their oven mitts. It gives people a new degree of independence.

Once the Oven Claw Pro is established in the marketplace, the company intends to expand its creative product line. In the meantime, Leikam says, "We are hunkered down here working to get the word out as broadly as possible."
