Emma Grede joins the panel as a “recurring Shark” for Shark Tank episode 1509. Together with Mark, Robert, Lori and Kevin she’ll evaluate 4 new businesses to see if she wants to invest. Will any Sharks get new business partners tonight?
Husband and wife team Fred Swar and Kirsten Maitland want a Shark to bite on Rebel Cheese, their line of nut milk based, vegan cheeses. Ashlee Turner pitches The Pocket Panty, her portable panties for women on the go. Ryan Neergaard and Ron Scharman hope to unpack a deal for FlyWithWine, their luggage that lets people safely transport wine and spirits while traveling. Twin sisters Casey Sarai and Taylor Capuano introduce Cakes Body, their silicon nipple covers that went viral on Tik Tok. Which business snags a Shark tonight?
Back in season 11, Kevin invested $270,000 for 3% of Blueland plus a fifty cent royalty on every kit sold until he recoups his money. Tonight we’ll see how the company is doing after being named the 15th largest Shark Tank company in sales with lifetime sales of $160 million.

Episode 1509 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 1509 entrepreneurs will make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest. The Shark Investors negotiate on the spot without any previous information, which differs from typical negotiations between venture capital investors and entrepreneurial start-ups.
Companies pitching the Shark Investors must go through a rigorous due diligence process before an on-air deal is completed. Shark Tank Blog follow ups help you keep track of the companies that end up successful and the ones that don’t complete their deal.
