The Fobbie - is packing tape for gifts. Simple but original invention businesswoman Liz Mrofka, president of Fab Fob Company, LLC. Since May this tape is sold in U.S. stores and Canada for 99 cents apiece. The idea to create such packaging tape came to Mrofka a few years ago, back in 2005 when she read in a magazine article on how to independently produce an original gift packaging. Needlework - this is an area to which Liz was always a weakness.
Using recommendations from the article, she made a beautiful ornament, which would be adapted for decorative gift packaging. But the problem was that she did not know how to attach it to packing. One night it's a solution. Her hit, she literally saw a turnkey solution - the slot for packing tape.
And then was hard work on making a prototype of the finished product, patenting inventions, its production and marketing. Product Name Fobbie came from the word «fob», which means "decoration on the tape, and clearly describes and captures the essence of the product. Thus was born the company The Fab Fob Company.
The original tape Fobbie made from re-used materials, it is durable and can be used multiple times. Decoration on the tape is also a multi-functional, it can serve as a decorative element or a magnet on the refrigerator. Simple, original and tasteful! This product is an ideal for children's gifts.
Sometimes the simplest idea of the product, made with love and creativity can turn into a successful business and become a real hit.
