What Happened To Tree-T-Pee After Shark Tank.
Johnny Georges walked into Shark Tank asking for a $150,000 investment for 20% equity in his company, Tree T-Pee. His product is a simple cone made from recycled plastic that helps farmers save water, reduce farming costs, and protect young trees from frost.
The Tree T-Pee is placed around the base of a young tree. It traps water and fertilizer so they stay near the roots instead of spreading away into the soil. Johnny explained that without it, only about 10% of water actually reaches the tree. With Tree T-Pee, almost all the water is used by the plant.
He shared a powerful fact: a normal tree uses about 25,000 gallons of water every year. With his system, farmers only need around 800 gallons. That leads to major savings in water, electricity, fuel, and fertilizer costs. Johnny said his goal was not just profit, but helping farmers lower costs and grow healthier crops.
Each Tree T-Pee costs about $2.95 to make, and he sells it for around $4.50. He kept the sale price low so farmers could afford it, even though it meant very small profit margins.
The Sharks liked the idea, but some worried the business would struggle to grow with such low pricing. Then guest Shark John Paul DeJoria stepped in. He admired Johnny’s honesty and mission and offered the full $150,000 investment for 20% equity.
After Shark Tank, Tree T-Pee grew into a global business, generating millions in yearly sales while still keeping prices affordable for farmers. The company is now estimated to have a net worth of around $100 million, proving that a simple idea with a strong purpose can become a huge success.
