Hello! My name is Evan Ruz, creator of the Garlic Chop garlic grinder & Garlic Peel peeler. Since 2007, for over 17 years now, I have been marketing these innovative kitchen tools.

The journey began out of my frustration with traditional garlic presses; I sought a simpler solution that would leave behind neither mess, nor odor on my hands. The initial model was white—a design that many still faithfully use today—and after dedicating almost 2500 hours to product/package development and numerous iterations later, we have refined our current model. 

Surprisingly, I found that lime green outsells white, so I only sell this colour now.  We’ve taken our products across Ontario to various festivals where nothing delights me more than learning about the diverse ways you incorporate the Garlic Chop into your culinary routines!  Garlic, ginger, radishes, baby carrots, tumeric...

Listening to customer feedback at these events led us to develop a complementary garlic peeler which I am thrilled to introduce. Our garlic grinder and peeler hold a Patent & Copyright. 

My passion is producing products that help people and hearing their stories! I’d love to hear your stories on our garlic chopper and peelers. Keep in touch with us, as we have new products and promotions coming for the 2024 Christmas season that would make great gifts!
