Ariel Barbouth walked into the Tank in Season 10, Episode 18 in the episode that aired April 7, 2019. Nuchas, the empanada - empanada franchise, 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 $2,000,000 for a 8% stake, which valued the company at $25M.
The sharks passed, and Nuchas 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.
Nuchas was one of 92 businesses to pitch in Season 10, where 63 deals got done. In the Food & Drink category overall, roughly 61% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
