Handi Products
Libertyville, Illinois
The business relocated after the show. It now operates as Handi Products (Handi-Treads).
What happened after
Patented aluminum anti-slip tread/ramp manufacturer (Handi-Treads); now headquartered and operating as handiproducts.com from Kenosha, Wisconsin rather than the original Libertyville, Illinois address.
What happened on the show
Handi Products was a multimillion dollar company making ramps and safety products, and the heart of the episode was a family relationship. The owner avoided conflict with his staff, including his own son, and Marcus set out to help father and son work through a troubled past and become a better team, while developing a whole new product category aimed at nationwide retail. It was a recurring Profit theme, a solid, established manufacturer whose growth was tangled up in unresolved family dynamics. The work centered on repairing the father and son relationship, getting the owner to engage rather than avoid, and building out the new products that could carry the company into national stores. The manufacturing base and the revenue were already real, which made the family repair and the product expansion the levers for the next stage of growth.
After the cameras left
Handi Products has relocated and remains active. The maker of patented anti slip treads and ramps, sold under the Handi-Treads name, now operates from Kenosha, Wisconsin rather than its original Libertyville, Illinois home, with a live site carrying a current copyright footer and an active catalog spanning treads, grip products, and bath safety items. A stale directory listing at the old Illinois address describing a different line of work appears to be a mismatched record rather than a separate company. Relocated and operating as of 2026, medium confidence.
