Product Update
Is Fishwife Still in Business? (2026 Update)
Is Fishwife from Shark Tank still around in 2026? Its on-air agreement, what happened afterward, and current ordering options.
Yes. Fishwife still has an active shop for tinned seafood, bundles and gifts. You can order through eatfishwife.com, although availability varies by flavor. Its homepage says Smoked Rainbow Trout is expected back in early 2027, so a favorite tin may need a restock notification.

How Fishwife started
Becca Millstein and Caroline Goldfarb founded Fishwife in 2020. In the company's origin story, Millstein traces her interest in conservas to time spent in Spain in 2015. The idea was to bring that tradition of tinned seafood to American pantries, with illustrated packaging by Danny Miller.
The brand's range now includes salmon, tuna, sardines, anchovies, mackerel and mussels. The recipes and sauces distinguish the tins: preserved lemon, spicy olive oil and basil pesto offer different starting points for a meal.

Fishwife on Shark Tank
Millstein appeared in Season 15, Episode 10, broadcast January 12, 2024. ABC's episode guide identifies Fishwife as the tinned seafood business and Candace Nelson as that night's guest shark.
Looper's January 13, 2024 episode recap reports that Millstein asked for $350,000 for 4% and accepted Lori Greiner and Nelson's on-air offer of $350,000 for 6%, plus advisory shares vesting over two years.

A cookbook and a chili-crisp collaboration
The Fishwife Cookbook followed in 2025. Google Books dates HarperCollins' publication to February 25, 2025, and the brand's own book page names Millstein and Vilda Gonzalez as its writers. Its 80 recipes include smoked mackerel udon, salmon deviled eggs and anchovy bolognese.
Fishwife also lists smoked salmon made with Fly By Jing's Sichuan chili crisp. That product combines smoked fish with a ready-made sauce, and the brand suggests using it in rice bowls or on greens. It is a specific flavor choice, especially if you prefer a tin you can open and use without making a separate dressing.

Fishwife net worth in 2026
There is no verified current company valuation for Fishwife. Its $8.75 million asking valuation was the price proposed during its 2024 pitch.
Choosing tins and finding a seller
Compare the pack count, tin weight and ingredients before ordering. The Fly By Jing salmon listing specifies three 3.2-ounce tins and lists fish, soy and sesame allergens. Other recipes have different ingredients, so choose by the individual label rather than the artwork on the box.
For a local purchase, use Fishwife's retailer locator and call the store before traveling. The brand specifically advises this because retailers can run out. For gifts, check whether your selected pack includes a gift box and whether the flavors you want are available.
