What Happened to Buena Papa After Shark Tank.
James and Johanna Windon turned a simple kitchen mistake into a fast-growing business. The high school sweethearts appeared on Shark Tank Season 15 seeking a $400,000 investment for 7% of their company, Buena Papa.
Before starting Buena Papa, the couple owned a cleaning business. When COVID forced them to shut it down, they needed a fresh start. One night, while making a traditional Colombian meal, they ran out of rice and used French fries instead. The result was so good that it inspired a new business idea.
In 2021, they opened their first Buena Papa restaurant in Raleigh, North Carolina. Their loaded fries quickly became a hit. Customers loved the unique flavors, and a viral TikTok video helped bring millions of views and thousands of new customers. With a food cost of about $3.50 per plate and a sale price of $13.50, the business generated over $1 million in sales during its first year.
On Shark Tank, Robert Herjavec saw potential in the company and made a deal. After negotiations, he agreed to invest $400,000 for 19% equity.
After the show, Buena Papa focused on growth through franchising. The company signed multiple franchise deals and expanded into new markets. Today, Buena Papa continues to grow, proving that a simple idea, hard work, and smart business decisions can turn a small purchase of potatoes into a nationwide brand.
