James brings his company Copa di Vino to
Kevin O’Leary immediately jumps into the fray, while the rest of the sharks enjoy samples. He asks if James is selling the packaging, or if he wants to compete in the wine industry.
James talks about his three different revenue streams: licensing and collecting royalties, bottling for industries, and launching a consumer brand.
At the time of filming, Copa di Vino has only been on the market for five months. In that time, sales have already hit $500,000, with over $800,000 in orders.
James sells his products in several stores, including Kroger’s and 7-Eleven. Further, James is expecting $3-$5 million in additional sales from wineries that he’s working with.
First to drop out is Daymond John, who thinks the company is too early for an investment.
On the other hand, Kevin and Robert Herjavec, are still interested in the packaging portion of the business. Just then, Mark Cuban encourages James to return with a proposal for the intellectual property, saying he may be interested at that point.
That’s when Kevin asks how much of the IP he could get for $600,000, so James doubles down on 20% equity, but Kevin says that’s not enough. Robert says he doesn’t think James is ready to split the concept, so he is also out.
Next to go out is Barbara Corcoran, who says she can’t bring anything to the company.
Kevin reiterates that the money is in the IP, but James says he is not ready to sell it. Mark speaks up and says he doesn’t see the profit in the product, so he is out.
Not ready to give up yet, Kevin says he wants 51% and asks what James wants for it. James replies with $3 million, and Kevin goes out.
With that, James left
