Partner with America's Favorite Kitchen Knife Sharpener by Mail

~90% of America's kitchen knives have never been sharpened.*

 

Every week we dull our knives even more.

Home cooks jump at the chance to use an easy professional sharpening model by mail. 

Those who sharpen by mail sharpen every 9-12 months.

Professional Sharpening

• Service serrated knives and kitchen scissors
• Industrial machines and processes
• Extensively trained sharpening staff
• Exacting quality control

Let's make it easy.

Like, really easy. 

Grocers offer a sharpening service to customers by way of a knife shipping kit with a UPC.
[Like the proven Bagster model from Waste Management.]

 

Grocer Benefits:

Revenue

• Net ~$5 per sale
• Customers purchase 1-3 times a year
• Customers with sharp knives purchase more groceries - especially meat and produce

Operations

• Fully insured service - including a satisfaction guarantee
• Knives never come to the store
• Staff never touch or service customer knives

Brand

• Increase customer service, customer loyalty + affinity, and build your brand beyond simple grocery
• Grow customer relationships. Introduce a service that makes home cooking more enjoyable
• Customers receive professional grade kitchen knife service in a few days without leaving their home all introduced by your brand

 

Path to Revenue

[Grocers typically have the product on the floor delighting customers and generating revenue in 2-4 weeks.]

Select:

• Point of purchase and shipping packages
• And/or signage for produce, meat and other departments
  
  
• And/or a unique code for marketing/social
