Project Pollo Shark Tank Update

Project Pollo Shark Tank Pitch

Lucas Bradbury appeared on Shark Tank Season 13, Episode 24, which aired on May 20, 2022, with A rapidly growing, successful chain of vegan chicken retaurants.

Project Pollo is listed in the Food Beverage category. In plain terms, the business is described as A rapidly growing, successful chain of vegan chicken retaurants.

Project Pollo asked the Sharks for $2,500,000 for 5%, implying a valuation of about $50 million.

The source data lists no completed on-air deal for Project Pollo.

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

Project Pollo After Shark Tank

Project Pollo left Shark Tank without a deal. The vegan fast-food chain kept expanding after the episode, adding stores and food trucks in 2022 while talking about franchising and new markets. (Project Pollo Shark Tank Update

The expansion story changed quickly. Later coverage reported that Project Pollo was acquired by a national franchise group, with most or all locations closing or converting after the transaction. (Project Pollo Shark Tank Update

By 2024, Shark Tank Blog treated Project Pollo as no longer in business, and no active ordering path remains for the original restaurant concept. This is a closed Season 13 food-service story despite its early growth. (Project Pollo Shark Tank Update
