Shark Tank Episode 824 features four new entrepreneurs seeking an investment from the panel of wealthy Sharks. Trevor and Justin Johnston want funds to grow their Wallet Buckle, a belt buckle that doubles as a wallet and securely holds up to five credit cards and IDs. Tyler Peoples wants the Sharks to help him make his Peoples Designs Scooping Bowl a standard tool in every kitchen. Afghan combat veterans Emily Miller, Kim Jung, and Keith Alaniz seek to spice up the Shark Tank when they introduce Rumi Spice, their company that sources and imports Saffron and other spices from Afghanistan farmers. Billy Thompson and Randy Choi introduce their patented, sweat-proof, made in the USA tee-shirts, Thompson Tee, with the hopes that a Shark won’t sweat the investment.

Episode 824 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 824 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.
