About CRIMPiT
CRIMPiT was founded by Ian Critchlow and Mike Harper in late 2021. Launching our first product, a toastie maker for Thins which took off rapidly. Three years later and the CRIMPiT brand has gone from strength to strength, with four core products now available - the CRIMPiT Thin Bread Sealer, CRIMPiT Wrap and Mini CRIMPiT Wrap & CRIMPiT Toastie Maker. We are stocked in some of the UK’s biggest retailers such as Tesco & John Lewis and our products are now enjoyed in over 1 million UK homes. We’ve recently been named as Robert Dyas’ Product of the year 2023/24’ and they featured the CRIMPiT as one of five ‘kitchen gadgets you can’t live without’ on a segment on This Morning.
Our mission is to continue to disrupt the snack market and put an end to boring lunches, making mealtime fun for the whole family.

Our goals:

* To scale CRIMPiT nationally and progress expansion into international markets.
* To always ensure gold-standard customer services.
* To be in-tune with our customer community, utilising their feedback in our innovation. We do this through our 120k strong private Facebook community of CRIMPiTeers.
