Yumble Shark Tank Update

Yumble Shark Tank Pitch

David Parker and Joanna Parker appeared on Shark Tank Season 10, Episode 8, which aired on December 8, 2018, with Healthy meal subscription food service for kids.

Yumble is listed in the Services category. In plain terms, the business is described as Healthy meal subscription food service for kids.

Yumble asked the Sharks for $500,000 for 4%, implying a valuation of about $12.5 million.

On the show, Yumble made a listed deal for $500,000 for 6%.

If treated as straight equity, the listed deal works out to about $8.3 million implied valuation, down from the original $12.5 million implied valuation.

This pitch is included as context for the more important question: what happened after Shark Tank.

Yumble After Shark Tank

The business later shifted into a related concept called Dibz Kidz, but that revised model did not rebuild the original Yumble momentum. (Chowhound Yumble update

By mid-2024, Dibz Kidz had shut down and Yumble was no longer operating, making this one of Season 10's more visible subscription-service failures. (Chowhound Yumble update
