Another Shark Tank Pitch
Samy Kobrosly, co-founder and inventor of the Snacklins brand, launched the business in 2015. Prior to starting Snacklins, Kobrosly gained experience working in various companies after completing his studies at American University.
How Was The Shark Tank Pitch Of Snacklins?
Kobrosly shared the story of how he started the business with the sharks. As of now, Kobrosly currently holds a 30% ownership stake in the company.
He mentioned that he allocated a 10% share of the company to his employees. With sales estimated at $2 million this year, up from $200,000 last year, their products’ availability in national retail stores like Whole Foods and 7-Eleven contributed to this growth.
Having raised $1.5 million so far, all sharks except Mark Cuban declined to invest. However, Mark expressed continued interest but sought a better deal.
Kobrosly initially offered Mark $250k for 5% equity, but Mark proposed an alternative: $250k for 5% equity plus 5% advisory shares convertible over 3 years. Kobrosly accepted Mark’s offer
Finalized: Mark Cuban invested $250k in exchange for 5% equity (+ 5% advisory shares) in Snacklins.
