Another Shark Tank Pitch

How Was The Shark Tank Pitch Of Toast It?

Mafe Cabezas and Coco Viete, the founders of TOAST IT, appeared on Shark Tank seeking $100,000 for 5% equity in their company. They impressed the Sharks with the taste of their arepas and shared their journey.

By May 2023, TOAST IT’s products were in 900 stores, including Publix, Walmart, Whole Foods Market, and Winn-Dixie. In 2022, the company achieved $200,000 in sales, and within the first five months of 2023, it nearly reached $195,000. They are targeting $500,000 in sales by the end of the year.

TOAST IT’s arepas cost $2.30 to make and sell for $3.23, yielding a gross margin of 30% before expenses and a 20% margin after expenses. Kevin O’Leary initially offered $100,000 for 20% equity, valuing the company at $500,000, and Daniel Lubetzky matched this offer.

The founders countered with a request for $150,000 for 15% equity. Kevin O’Leary declined, but Daniel Lubetzky countered with $150,000 for 20% equity, which the founders accepted.
