Long Wharf Shark Tank Update

Long Wharf Shark Tank Pitch

Lauren Lamagna and Mike Lamagna appeared on Shark Tank Season 13, Episode 2, which aired on October 15, 2021, with high end apparel made from recycled oyster shells and plastic bottles.

Long Wharf is listed in the Clothing Fashion category. In plain terms, the business is described as high end apparel made from recycled oyster shells and plastic bottles.

Long Wharf asked the Sharks for $375,000 for 15%, implying a valuation of about $2.5 million.

The source data lists no completed on-air deal for Long Wharf.

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

Long Wharf After Shark Tank

Long Wharf Supply Company left Shark Tank without a deal after Peter Jones wanted more equity than the founders were willing to give up. The no-deal outcome did not stop the sustainable apparel business. (Long Wharf Supply Company Shark Tank Update

After the episode, Long Wharf kept tying product growth to its environmental story: each sweater seeds oysters, and by January 2023 the company had recycled more than 60,000 pounds of oyster shells and seeded over 350,000 oysters. (Long Wharf Supply Company Shark Tank Update

By November 2023, update coverage put Long Wharf at $10 million in lifetime sales. The current store still sells sweaters and other coastal apparel, so this is a continuing brand rather than a one-season sustainability pitch. (Long Wharf Supply Company Shark Tank Update
