SwimZip Swimwear Shark Tank Article Appears in Topeka Capital Journal

SwimZip Swimwear Founders, Betsy Johnson and Berry Wanless, grew up in Topeka, Kansas.  So they were super excited to see a story in their hometown newspaper, The Topeka Capital Journal, featuring a story about their upcoming appearance on Shark Tank:

"A desire to get more exposure for their company has landed siblings with Topeka ties on ABC’s “Shark Tank” this Friday to pitch their sun-protective clothing line for children. …. 

Although Johnson and Wanless weren’t able to say much about their episode, which airs at 8 p.m. Friday, they both agreed they were nervous when they walked into the “tank.” Johnson said panelist Kevin O’Leary was one of the more intimidating “sharks,” but she and Wanless said all of the panelists were intimidating in their own way.

“I would get nervous for people on the show when I would watch it at home, so it was that times 100 when I went in there,” Johnson said."

Thanks Ellen Fike and The Topeka Capital Journal for their story about SwimZip UPF 50+ sun protective swimwear!
