The Team

The team at Lewes Innovations was assembled in 2019 with a simple concept, to bring our first great idea to market. At the time, all we had was an idea, a few engineering minds, and the drive to create. In the innovation fueled world we live in today, two childhood friends from Lewes, Delaware are taking thoughts from the back of their heads and designing them to be sold on shelves in front of your eyes.
