Dave Alwan faced the sharks in Season 6, Episode 22 in the episode that aired March 13, 2015, bringing their Bartonville, IL business with them. Echo Valley Meats, the specialty food, pitched in the Food & Drink category, one of 318 food & drink businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.

Mark Cuban made the deal at $150,000 for 25% equity. That priced the company at $600K, a haircut from the $750K the founders walked in asking for, which is how negotiations in the Tank usually go.
