Super Orbs, a vegan snack and meal made with organic superfoods, sought investment in Shark Tank Australia. The founders presented a product with a strong retail presence but faced challenges with their business model, including cash flow and scalability. Despite a positive reception to the product, the Sharks ultimately declined investment due to concerns over the business model's viability, though one offered a potential partnership through their purchasing manager.

Product Description

00:00:35 Super Orbs are a vegan snack and meal made with organic superfoods and are low in nutrients, and made without fillers, additives, or preservatives. They are handcrafted, but manufactured in a way that allows for high volumes without compromising nutritional integrity.

Shark Tank Outcomes
