Fox Run Brands LLC is a leading designer, marketer and distributor of nationally-branded consumer products for the kitchen &home worldwide.

Leslie Haywood, Owner of Charmed Life Products, LLC, and inventor of the Grill Charms™ remarked, "I set out in 2006, after a very spicy light bulb moment, to invent a grilling accessory that distinguishes spices and flavors, steak temperatures, and helps to avoid health or allergy issues. You can find my product in hundreds of retailers across North America, but I am still pinching myself. This is an inventor’s dream come true." Leslie and Grill Charms™ have appeared on many national shows including ABC’s Shark Tank seasons 1 and 2, The Today Show, and the Big Idea with Donny Deutsch.

Fox Run Brands will continue offering the same level of excellent customer service that Charmed Life Products has supplied the retail community since 2006. Fox Run Brands will begin shipping Grill Charms™products in Spring 2013, meaning this holiday season will be consumer’s last opportunity to purchase Grill Charms™ in their current form.

According to Sean Leonard, President, Fox Run Brands, LLC, “Grill Charms™is a great addition to our brand assortment, bringing a proven grilling solution to our already strong assortment of grilling accessories. We feel Grill Charms™ is the single best solution in marking your personal steak, chicken or other cut of meat before grilling. It offers a serrated stem to keep the charm secure in the meat while grilling or broiling. Grill Charms™ have a great retail performance record and we have great expectations for future sales & distribution.”
