The pitch
What walked into the Den
Krazy Dan's is a small-batch operation built around pickled wieners and related pickled snacks.
Danny Shaver and Yvonne Laub pitched in season 13, asking $200,000 for a 10 percent stake at an implied $2 million valuation.
After the show
What happened next
CBC lists only the ask, and while a follow-up clip exists, its blurb names no Dragon and states no terms, so we do not treat it as a confirmed deal and the outcome stays open.
Current status is unsettled. The brand's listed domain failed to resolve on our July 2026 check, one closure signal, but a review-site listing hinted at recent activity we could not confirm, so we do not declare it closed on a single signal.
Our read
The Hub verdict
The 10 percent ask puts $2 million on a small-batch pickled-snack maker, an ambitious tag for a niche product. The outcome is genuinely unresolved: a follow-up clip exists but names no Dragon and no terms, so it cannot count as a deal. Status is a single-signal case, a domain that no longer resolves against a review listing hinting at recent activity, which is exactly the split evidence that keeps us at unverified rather than a confident closed. A lone dead domain against a hint of recent activity is the textbook split that keeps a status at unverified instead of closed.
Ambitious valuation; outcome open, status unverified
Worth knowing: One dead domain is a hint, not proof, so we hold the status as unverified until a second independent signal points the same way.
