Very cool for Kevin not to be salty about the wine competition jokes and happy for the deal
Mr wonderful has a great sense of humor. You should check out his social media accounts
The wine buiessness is so large even if a few new startups take off it wont make a difference in the grand sceme of things.
@@satl3161 My fave shark easily, he is genuinely hilarious
Kevin was a real sport about the whole thing. He always impresses me tbh
Shark
@@lorigreniershark179 Tuna
Growing up I thought Kevin was the mean shark. Now I realize he's one of the most mature, but also one of the best at branding a character
@@PepsiFuture meanwhile Mark looks like the nicest, but turns out he's quite arrogant (see him get so condescending when other sharks disagree with him) and he's fighting law proposals to tax the rich, because reasons.
@@carlosfer2201 maybe because the rich pay 96% of all federal income tax perhaps? Deincentivizing success is not substainable. I think I ought to point out that Kevin isn't exactly in the socialist left wing camp ur in either.
For the amount of money he was making, and the amount he was asking for, I think 40% was a fair deal.
It was an insane deal! would have bitten the hands off that for 4 sharks!
@@jeeveso right lol they gave him a valuation 3x higher than 6 years of sales
Relax, it's TV. Not real. There was no deal.
@@HomestarCrawler really?? Source?
@@shiskeyoffles It looks like it didn't pass the due diligence phase. Just type in the company's name into search and look at the Mashed article. They mention it at the bottom of the article.
I love this product, and I think the sharks looked past his obvious lack of sales to see the true potential with this.
Props to this man for seeing a want for a simple, stand out product that EVERYONE can enjoy!
@Travel Crawl the school he picked ruined him. too much econ and not enough skill to manage or market
Wish he could have kept more of hi equity
I think all the sharks knew he was gonna blow up now cause its on tv so they wanted a piece of it
@@ninjareflex drinking was involved with the decision making process
The deal didn't go through apparently, but he's still in business doing good.
Kevin is so cool for not getting upset or salty even tho wine is his forte
To be fair, mead is quite different from grape wine.
lmao the deal didn’t even go through with the sharks and the guy so he’s the happy one
@@brandonesparza4346 Sheeesh really?
He didn't want to be a part of it. He thought it was a bad investment.
I am from Ethiopia and I am really pleased to see an Ethiopian presenting our traditional drink in a modernized way to the sharks. May God be with you through all your journey.
Barbara: I’m out.
Other sharks: You aren’t even on the show today.
Barbara: And for that reason, I’m out.
😐
🤣
Lol she never invests, always a negative Nancy
😂😂😂
this will never not be funny
Born in Ethiopia, great to hear that, you motivated us. One day I may have the chance to present my business on the Shark Tank. Good Luck!
What is ur business idea?
Good luck, dude!!!
Go get them tiger
I bet it smells horrendous everywhere in Ethiopia.
@@pokemontradingcardgamecoll5934 just like your behind does. Go puck your negativity down there.
Absolutely love the subtitles for whispering, it saves our time of turning the subs on, rewinding, and hearing it closely!!!
Robert says “I just wanna help you”so humble
At a certain point, with all these sharks having dozens if not hundreds of companies, I'm starting to wonder how much time they have to really help their new entrepreneurs out.
The sharks have teams of people that manage it for them. Also a lot of the companies from earlier seasons either go under or sell to larger companies.
@@ericmueser That's true. I'd like to see a list (estimated) of how many active companies each of them is currently invested in.
@@EGarrett01 Most of the sharks besides maybe Daymond and Barbara has invested in around 40 companies with Marka n Laurie and Kevin actually investing in most companies.
They normally invest around 200k on average per deal
@@Slashresto Yeah that's pretty crazy.
@@EGarrett01 mark has around 85 companies from shark tank
My fellow countryman from Ethiopia, proud of you. You made me so happy when you mentioned Ethiopia more than once. I like your confidence, to-the-point explanation and smart decision. Wish you a tremendous success. 👍
This is the only respectable Ethiopian in the world.
Now look at yourself. You should be ashamed.
@@trololololol1111 I wish I knew what is in your mind. Peace up on you!
@@admassuk.2419
European countries shed their own blood so Ethiopia could be liberated, and your own countrymen, instead of defending such a precious jewel, let it become so corrupt and damn near uninhabitable.
@@CraftyMiscreant Ethiopia & Ethiopians have never been liberated from anyone by anyone. In fact, Ethiopia helped other Africans get their independence from European colonizers. You're right in that the Europeans shed their own blood in attempting to colonize Ethiopia. They miserably failed at least twice.
So, what is your point? There is a corrupt government. So what? The governments of the superpowers are extremely corrupt too. I wish your comment was related to this specific video. You're kinda dragging it to unrelated idea. I'd appreciate if you could play civility. Peace!!!
I'm from Ethiopia 🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹 and i'm proud of this guy we need more people like him in the country
i saw it and was like ooooooooo he's selling bottles of sin, then i realized it was tej
@@-..-..-..-..-..-..-..-..-.. lol 🤣🤣🤣
He is not Amhara, Tigre, or Oromo. That is why he is so creative! others are warmongers
"Made in Ethiopia"...Good Job Brother,Very Proud of You.....Keep it up !
7:13 Kevin totally dropped character there and just told the guy to take the deal, haha.
he didnt drop it its because he was out already. He wants everyone to prosper
@@marc-antoinemarcoux697 He could have been snarky about it and tried to “squeeze their heads”, but he told the truth and encouraged the guy. Having all those sharks makes for a VERY large watermelon to have a piece of:) I loved the entrepreneur too and I wish him so much success.
Lori at the end doing the dance: “Is that it?”
She wanted an 8-count routine 😂
Haha! Lori is a trained dancer! She talks about it in another pitch about socks made for dancers
"The wine is great, the potential is fabulous, the market is ready, and for all those reasons I'm out" ~Barbara
He got lucky to get 4 sharks at 40 percent, his business was falling apart,,6 years and still made no money and he had the nerve to want to counter with 4 sharks willing to help, come on now ,,we all know that rarely happens,, even kevin told him he can't miss out on a great deal like that there's nothing to think about.
The deal never closed though, so he ended up not working with any one of them. But hey, business is good, they still running.
@@sammyaxel why was it closed
The Ethiopian Dance:
Shakes shoulders.
Lori: "Is that it?"🤔❓😃
This fella seems like such a nice guy! I wish him all the success in the world. God bless!
The deal did not go through my friend.
This channel is the only thing keeping me sane
Same! It's my obsession.
The deal was never signed unfortunately, but Bee D'Vine is still in business
Really? Know why?
Kevin thought he was the only one who sold wine the Sharks surprised him.
i’m so glad they kept the tradition 😂 i miss the prontobev pitch so much
Bees endangerment is about the bees, that are not regular honey-making bees. It's about many different species, that are specialised in different flowers pollination. People abuse this fact for marketing purposes.
No way this will do good without dropping his price. Tons of wine at local stores for under $20.
with 4 sharks by his side, it'll do good for sure.
Agree
Barbara: "I notice there is wine inside the bottle. I'm out"
Not even the slightest bit funny
The “YESSSSIIRRRR” after he accepted the deal😂😂😂😂
Barbra: I got stung by a bee once. And for that reason I'm out.
I like how he introduced our cultural dance. ETHIOPIA 🇪🇹
I swear when i clicked this thumbnail i thought; ‘another wine product, it better has honey in it’ and here we are. Im buying it
2:36 The mood changed at that moment. lol
👆👆☝️Thanks for watching contact Us on the platform above we have a surprise giveaway package for you ❤️❤️🎁....
Kevin wasn't worried lmao
This is why sample is very necessary for product sales.
The sales in 6 years didn't impress them.
But they tasted the while and saw it was is good and has a market yet to exploit.
Good for him. This was awesome. I just felt my heart sink when he gave up 40% of his company but I believe they're going to make him RICH!
The deal didn't close.
@@johnrupesh4535do you know why ?
I jump when I hear Ethiopia, I love how our regular drinks become a business like this.
I don't know why but one of my favorite things is when the Sharks start talking to each other in the background trying to get some numbers to get a deal working together.
Kevin keeps mentioning that 97% of all wines sell under $15 but almost every wine he sells on his website is over $20.
I think that's more about the year this was shot in
@@rajasshah16 this is fairly recent I presume considering the chairs are spaced far apart due to Covid.
Dude doesn’t want to lower his price, even though everything is telling him his price is way too high Lmfao
"We are very comfortable without Kevin"
Dead! Lmao
He looks like he's gon step out of a door and scream "I did not hit her it's not true I did not hit her I did not...
oh Hi Mark".
UPDATE: they never signed the deal but the guy now sells out constantly. He probably does need an investor for inventory.
Source??
what a cheerfull episode; so uplifting and positive 😁
Consuming honey, bee’s source of food and energy, does not save the bees 😂
East Africa guy so proud 🥹
Yeah 🇰🇪
well done bro, you make me proud. i wish good for you and i love the way you make teji and the way you modernize it. i wish one day you will sell it in Ethiopia too.
I want companies like this to succeed but I am pretty sure it didn't close
Why??
@@SarahH9000 maybe the showed numbers doens't match
doesn't*
Not at 50 dollars a bottle. Mead is super cheap
Why are Americans so broke
in Ethiopia Under 1$ u can get the Og honey wine locally called tej
ጠጆ kikikikik
Love it " dancing on your pallet " sounds delicious 😋
Looks like their comments about the steep price haven’t made a difference, because this wine is still selling for on average $50 per bottle. No thanks
No one, but Chef wonderful - schevanchchavail😂😂
Honey wine is only done in Ethiopia, we need to introduce this to the rest of the world. Honey is a natural antibiotic
Are you serious? Mead has been drunk in Europe for centuries.
It’s everywhere. It’s literally the oldest form of recorded alcoholic beverage in human history in Europe and Asia.
Gobez proud of you! 🎉🎉🎉
The main guy who knows wine business Kevin, he left out 😂😂
Love the Ethiopian dance at the end, so interesting.
Love Ethiopian Dance. Good luck brother🇪🇹
Well done Ayele! Wishing you all the best of luck. 🇪🇹
This product seems like it would work really well in cooking and baking recipes.
“Your gonna get an education” 🤣🤣
1:26 TO THE CHEVALIER DU TASTEVIN!!
I am proud of you Mr. Ayele Solomon!! Never give up on your journey to success. May God be with u!!
Barbra:
“I love wine, and I love honey, this product is absolutely perfect! But trying to save the environment is too corny for me, I hate people like you. So for that reason im out.”
*Barbara
Mark "no negotiating" spreading the fear into the poor fella haha
This show alone will bet him sales over 1 million dollar, cause im sure everyone will be intrigued to try one, plus he's getting 4 sharks behind his company, he's going to be a millionaire next year, no question asked
Any update about the product today?
dafuc's up with the backround music tho 😂
Wow, I can’t believe Ayele gave 40% of the company to them.
Bee D'Vine Status:
Turns out the Deal didn't close but the websites up and running. The current valuation of the company is unclear but according to sources it's $3.7 mil and some say its $1.2 mil.
You can find honey wine alot cheaper. Just search online.
Big ask, little traction, but great product and mission. I'm glad they cut this guy a break and recognized his potential!
The deal didn't go through.
@@kabirali9232 ah too bad
I'd love to try some, but not at those prices in this economy.
Props to Kevin (and all of the sharks really) for being direct with him.
Love watchin Shark Tank it's interestin funny n crazy
How many thumbs up would you give it, Ebert?
Your numbers don't even make sense... love it!
I’m so happy for that man I hope her does good
I wish u would include a link where we can buy these products!!
The guy is still a 60% majority. Some people think giving up 40 is a big deal but you get 4 of them at 10% is a win in almost any situation.

Mark is so great uh huh ok 🤣🤣🤣
I wish this guy would have listened to the Sharks. I'm not a big drinker anymore but I would have liked to be able to try this... just not at their prices (which has gone up since this episode lol).
I wish the Sharks could have a secondary series or something that addresses the deals that failed and what made them fail. It would be highly educational.

When Barbara’s boyfriend calls her asking what she’s up to.
Barbara: I’m out.
👆👆☝️Thanks for watching contact Us on the platform above we have a surprise giveaway package for you ❤️❤️🎁....
that was a very generous offer! They really liked the wine I think.
Oh my i love this guy! I will def BEE a customer!!!
Send location
It's good wine I bought it twice now
@@maccusmc send yours.
" It's that sweet spot being under 15. "
Where can I buy this?
"Is that it? "... 🤣
You can sell more cases with honey than you could with vinegar. 😉
Thank you for not SPOILING it in the title... keep it up!!
1:12 Lori is convinced.
Is it just me or do they all seem a little off or drunk from those few sips 🤣😂
👆👆☝️Thanks for watching contact Us on the platform above we have a surprise giveaway package for you ❤️❤️🎁....
Am I the only one who just sits like "This is just MEAD! Good old viking mead that's unflavored by ingredients but fermented in barrels."
Except that almost every continent has its own version of mead so it's not just a viking thing.
Their deal didn't close but i think he's still in business.
Who's side didn't close?
He is but the wine is quite expensive for what it is, especially since more wineries are offering honey wine.
He’s going to explode at the SF Ferry Building!
There are so many good wines under $20.
👆👆☝️Thanks for watching contact Us on the platform above we have a surprise giveaway package for you ❤️❤️🎁..
a good apportunity brother
I'll buy if it's on international market. Like in Canada❤❤❤
I can see Barbara even though she isn't there: This is delicious😊.... I'm out😒
Good mead is delicious and easy to make at home but expensive to buy.
Mark’s dance is close.
I'll be GENUINELY sad, when one of the sharks pass away some day, and they aren't there anymore, I hope you sharks know some of us have been here since season 1

This guys made 3 mil in the first month after he left...his sales have been increasing month by month..well done 👍
