An episode last month made âShark Tankâ history with a $2.5 million deal â the biggest yet on the show. Throughout six seasons, other budding businesses have gotten large amounts of funding from the investor sharks, but the deals donât always pan out.
Since its debut in 2009, Shark Tank has produced its fair share of start-up success stories, but its most successful product is a sponge. Yes, a sponge. In 2012, Lori Greiner offered Scrub Daddy $200,000 for a 20% stake in the company. The smiling sponge has since sold over 10 million units, made more than $50 million in sales, and secured its title as the most successful Shark Tank product of all time.
