What looks like a refrigerator on wheels, sparked a 15-year hockey bag empire, and then evolved into one of the most innovative golf bags ever designed? Meet the original prototype that started it all!
Host Colin Weston visits the GRIT Inc. headquarters north of Toronto in Loretto Ontario with founder and CEO Greg Collins for a product demo you won't find anywhere else. Greg pulls back the curtain on his entrepreneurial journey, revealing the crude, rolling "tool chest golf bag" prototype that a pizza parlour inventor convinced him to build and how that unlikely idea transformed into a global sporting goods brand.
You'll see the evolution from hockey bags to the new GRIT 2.0 Tower Golf Bag, with its automotive-inspired racing stripes, magnetic closures, waterproof materials, and a square design engineered specifically to fit power carts without twisting.
