Founder's original intent and vision

The Visionary Behind BoxKing—Dan Blacklock

Dan’s love for board games and tabletop gaming led him to design the perfect shelving system. Frustrated by traditional shelves, he created BoxThrone, allowing each game its own space. Dan remains committed to designing premium storage solutions for the gaming community.

BoxKing Gaming’s Shark Tank Journey

In 2023, Dan appeared on Canada’s Dragon’s Den (Shark Tank) and secured a deal with Michele Romanov. Though the deal wasn’t finalized, this experience underscored BoxKing’s potential. With new investors in 2024, BoxKing Gaming is poised for exciting growth.
