- Sought valuation
Shawn Davis walked into the Tank in Season 2, Episode 1 in the episode that aired March 20, 2011, bringing their Nashville, TN business with them. CBS Foods, the specialty food, pitched in the Food & Drink category, one of 318 food & drink businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.
On the carpet, the number was $200,000 for a 25% stake, which valued the company at $800K.
The sharks passed, and CBS Foods left without a deal. That's not always the end of the story. Some of Shark Tank's most successful companies were rejected on air and grew anyway, using the exposure (the "Shark Tank effect") to drive sales the sharks missed out on.
CBS Foods was one of 36 businesses to pitch in Season 2, where 19 deals got done. In the Food & Drink category overall, roughly 61% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
