David and Joe Ahmadd pitch Coldest, their insulated water bottle business that keeps water cold for 36 hours, in Shark Tank episode 1516. Founded in 2015 in a gargage, the business has grown into a 72,000 square foot facility today. That’s because they had the vision to want the coldest water in the hottest state: Florida. They designed a stainless steel, double-wall, vacuum-insulated bottle that keeps water cold longer than any other brand out there.
The company expanded beyond just water bottles. They now make pillows, sheets and other bedding that keep you cool with temperature-regulating bamboo viscose fabric. There are a wide variety of bottles, tumblers, cups and jugs plus ice packs and even dog bedding. All the bottles are leak proof. They even sell flavoring for your water.
The Coldest is a premium brand and has a premium price. A “standard” water bottle is $55. They sell via “drops” where they’ll have a custom color or design on a particular product. All their products are available on their website and Amazon Store. They even have their own retail store at the Coastland Mall in Naples, Florida. Believe it or not, the company plans on opening an amusement park called “Coldest World” in 2030! They probably need a Shark for that endeavor.

Coldest Shark Tank Recap
David and Joe will pitch the panel of five Sharks on the business and its prospects for growth. They’ll need to convince Mark Cuban, Kevin O’Leary, Lori Greiner, Robert Herjavec and Daymond John that the company is worthy of a Shark investment. A good business plan, good financials, and sales data will impress the Sharks, but they’ll need to show them THEY are capable of running the company to “Shark standards.” A full pitch re-cap on Coldest will be available on Shark Tank Blog once this episode airs.
