Shark Tank is one of ABC’s most popular reality shows and features entrepreneurs pitching their ideas to a panel of investors. Some businesses have struggled to survive but others have become huge success stories. Below we cover the top 15 most successful companies, taking into account lifetime revenue and recent valuations.
1. Bombas
Athletic socks have seen a number of innovations thanks to Bombas. However, the apparel company is best known for its philanthropic efforts, donating a pair of socks for every item they sell.
Startup experts David Heath and Randy Goldberg thought of starting a sock business after discovering socks are the most requested item in shelters. They entered the Tank in season six, looking to get $200,000 for 5%.
Daymond John agreed to invest $200,000 for 17.5%. Today, Bombas makes an estimated $100 million in annual revenue and has done over $1.3 billion in retail sales! The firm claims to have donated over 100 million pairs of socks and other clothing essentials according to an interview with Shopify.
2. Scrub Daddy
Scrub Daddy is arguably the most memorable product to appear on the show. The iconic smiley-face sponge can soften or harden based on the water temperature.
Founder Aaron Krause has been an inventor since childhood, but he came up with the multi-purpose sponge by accident. Aaron popped up on season four asking Sharks to invest $100,000 for 10% of the product. Many Sharks fought for the deal, but Lori Greiner won with an offer of $200,000 for 20%.
The day after the show, the company sold 42,000 sponges in around seven minutes. In 2024, Scrub Daddy generated an estimated $340 million in revenue. As of August 2025, Scrub Daddy has done over $1.3 billion in annual revenue according to Lori Greiner. Thanks to Scrub Daddy’s success, Krause is worth an estimated $70 million.
3. Doorbot (Ring)
Ring’s wifi video doorbells are now commonplace in millions of houses across America. The business appeared on season five of Shark Tank under the name Doorbot, seeking $700,000 for a 10% stake.
Serial entrepreneur Jamie Siminoff invented the product and Kevin O’Leary was interested but couldn’t reach a deal as Siminoff didn’t want any debt.
No Sharks invested but Ring later became a massive success, reaching $415 million in annual revenue in 2017. In 2018, Ring was acquired by the e-commerce giant Amazon for $1.2 billion.
4. Everlywell
Everlywell offers 30+ at home lab tests through licensed providers. Giving you actionable information and easy access to online healthcare.
Julia Cheek revolutionized home-health testing by creating a platform where people can order a test kit, provide samples, send them to a partner lab, and review the results online. Cheek featured on season nine of Shark Tank and asked for $1 million for 5%.
Her valuation was much higher than other pitches, but Lori Greiner took the risk. The gamble paid off tremendously, according to Bloomberg Everlywell made around $200 million in annual revenue for 2020, and is valued at $2.9 billion. The healthcare company has done over $1.2 billion in lifetime sales.
5. Poppi
Formerly known as Mother Beverage, Poppi is a prebiotic soda brand that’s exploded in popularity in recent years. Founders Allison and Stephen Ellsworth appeared on season ten as Mother Beverage and secured a deal with Rohan Oza.
The couple rebranded to Poppi, leaning into the growing demand for healthier alternatives to traditional soda. In 2025, PepsiCo announced it would acquire Poppi for around $1.7 billion, following a year where the brand pulled in roughly $391 million in sales. Today, Poppi is stocked in major retailers across the U.S. and continues to dominate the functional beverage category.
6. Cousins Maine Lobster
Cousins Maine Lobster started with cousins Jim Tselikis and Sabin Lomac selling lobster rolls from a single food truck in Los Angeles. In season four, they secured $55,000 from Barbara Corcoran for 15% of their company.
From that small start, the brand has grown into a national franchise – now counting over 85 locations across 30+ states and has topped $1 billion in total systemwide sales as of 2025. Their per‑unit performance is strong too – 2024 Franchise Disclosure figures show average truck sales of approximately $1.3 million each.
7. The Bouqs Company
The Bouqs Company aimed to transform flower delivery by sourcing blooms directly from eco-conscious farms and selling them DTC. Founders John Tabis and JP Montúfar appeared on Season 5 seeking $258,000 for 3% equity but didn’t secure a deal on the show.
Undeterred, they built the brand through sustainable practices, a strong subscription model, and word-of-mouth marketing. In 2025, Bouqs has surpassed $1 billion in lifetime revenue, making it one of the highest-grossing Shark Tank alumni.
8. Plated
Plated is regarded as a pioneer in the meal kit subscription business. The business model involves delivering pre-packaged fresh meals with chef-prepared recipes to subscribers.
Harvard Business School graduates, Nick Taranto and Josh Hix believed they could take food delivery to the next level. In season five, the two gentlemen requested $500,000 for 4% equity.
Mark Cuban made a deal of $500,000 for 6%, but it never closed. Kevin O’Leary then made an off-screen agreement with the founders. Kevin helped the startup scale its operations quickly to overcome competition and Plated was purchased by Albertsons for $300 million in 2017.
9. The Comfy
As the name suggests, The Comfy’s oversized sweater blankets are made for comfort. They are often compared to Snuggies, but the product has a pocket and uses a different material.
When they were about to launch a Kickstarter campaign, entrepreneur brothers Michael and Brian Speciale realized that their product wasn’t ready. So, they canceled it and instead featured on season nine seeking $50,000 for 20%.
Despite not having any sales or started production, the guys got a deal with Barbara Corcoran: $50,000 for 30%. Five weeks after the episode aired, The Comfy did $5 million in sales. Currently, The Comfy have made $550 million in total revenue according to investopedia.com.
10. Dude Wipes
Dude Wipes started out as a side hustle among friends Sean Riley, Brian Wilkin, and Jeff Klimkowski, who wanted a better alternative to toilet paper. The trio pitched in season seven, offering 25% of the company for $300,000. Mark Cuban took the deal, instantly seeing the brand’s cheeky marketing potential.
Since then, Dude Wipes has grown into a household name, securing nationwide distribution in stores like Walmart and Target. In 2025, Mark Cuban revealed the brand had crossed $500 million in lifetime sales, making it one of the most profitable investments in Shark Tank history.
11. BeatBox Beverages
BeatBox Beverages was created by friends Justin Fenchel, Aimy Steadman, and Brad Schultz to reinvent boxed wine for a younger, party-loving audience. They appeared on season six, asking for $250,000 for 10% of the business. Mark Cuban came in with an offer of $1 million for 33%, betting big on their branding and flavor innovation.
Since then, the company has shifted from wine-centric, large-format boxed wine to single-serve cartons and moved from wine to beer distribution networks.
That transition supported a rapid expansion: by 2023, BeatBox achieved over $100 million in annual sales and a valuation of $200 million. In fact, they forecasted sales of $175 million for 2024, a 75% year-over-year increase.
12. Tipsy Elves
Tipsy Elves is one of the more bizarre companies to appear on Shark Tank. They are notorious for making holiday sweaters featuring funny to straight-up absurd designs.
Nicklaus Morton, a dentist, and Evan Mendelsohn, a lawyer, started the business as a side hustle. After seeing its high margins, the pair went to the Tank in hopes of getting $100,000 for a 5% stake in their startup.
Robert Herjavec jumped into the wild business idea and agreed to their initial offer. He didn’t regret though, as Tipsy Elves is now earning $6 million per year, with a valuation of $20 million. Total retail sales now stand at $317 million.
13. Squatty Potty
It may come as a surprise to many but one of the most successful products is one made for defecating. The Squatty Potty is a footstool that helps you get in the right position while pooping.
Family man Bill Edwards invented the squatting stool to help his wife, Judy, when she suffered from hemorrhoids and constipation. Judy decided to take the product to the Sharks, offering 5% of the business for $350,000.
Lori Greiner proposed $350,000 for 10%, and they secured the deal. In 2021, the company was acquired by Aterian for $31.1 million. Lifetime sales have reached over $260 million, and Squatty Potty is worth an estimated $50 million.
14. Simply Fit Board
The Simply Fit Board is a basic training board that works your core by making you maintain balance as you twist while standing on it. It’s simple but has proven to be effective.
The brains behind the exercise equipment are Gloria Hoffman and Linda Clark. Though the brand was already set up nicely, the two still wanted help from the Sharks, proposing $125,000 for 18% on season seven of the series.
Lori was the Shark that bit and closed a deal at $125,000 for 20%. The investment helped Simply Fit Board get into over 50,000 retail stores and generate over $170 million in lifetime sales.
15. Sunniva Super Coffee
Sunniva Super Coffee is promoted as a healthy replacement for energy drinks and traditional coffee. It contains lactose-free protein, pure Colombian coffee beans, and organic coconut oil.
The coffee product was created by another set of brothers: Jake, Jordan, and Jim DeCicco. They are all collegiate football players who disliked common sports drinks. The brothers joined the show in season nine, looking for $500,000 for a 4.5% stake.
Sadly, most of the Sharks didn’t like the taste of their product, so they walked away without a deal. The trio worked on their own to reach $55 million in revenue, with a valuation of over $200 million.
