L. May on Dragons’ Den

In October 2009, L. May stepped into the national spotlight on CBC’s Dragons’ Den, presenting its handcrafted aluminum lunchboxes, built tough for real work and made to last.

During the pitch, Catherine Langin (daughter of the original founder) shared the product’s unique legacy and its connection to Canadian tradespeople. The lunchbox caught the attention of the Dragons and secured an investment offer from entrepreneur Brett Wilson.

This moment marked a turning point, a national nod to the strength, design, and utility behind the L. May lunchbox.

L. May, it’s no longer just about carrying meals — It’s more than a lunchbox. It’s a lifestyle.
