The T|W Tote was birthed from a real need; a better way to carry lunch. The T|W Tote is a startup that creates stylish and professional lunch bags.
Shallon Thomas, co-founder of T|W Tote, struggled to find something to place his lunch in for the day. After trying a paper bag, a plastic bag, and even a velcro neoprene meal bag, he realized none of these really reflected the look he was going for (since he needed to wear a suit and tie. Shallon went online and attempted to find a corporate lunch box but he could not find one he liked at a reasonable price. Shallon decided to take this matter into his own hands and to create a lunch tote himself.
Shallon partnered up with Sherika Wynter, becoming the founders of T|W Lunch Tote. At first, they dealt with many business struggles due to a lack of knowledge. However, they grew their business with digital skills picked up from Digital Coaches at a Grow with Google workshop.
Natives of the West Indies, Shallon and Sherika research and design products that solve overlooked problems. With backgrounds that range from mechanical engineering to business administration, these two work together to meet the needs of their target audience. While their sense of styles differ, their dedication to high quality products do not.
