Intense Focus Shark Tank Pitch and Updates
Manish appeared on Shark Tank India season 3 and shared details about his eyewear brand Intense Focus.
The founder started his pitch by sharing the fact that the market size of the eyewear industry is around 30,000 Crores. Also, the market is 80% unorganized which provides enough opportunities for people to build a brand.
To fill that gap, Manish started Intense Focus and is looking forward to building a world-class brand based out of India.
As per the founder, he had a very humble beginning and started his career as an employee in an eyewear store. After that, he learned different processes and started his own showroom. Later, to scale that business, he went into the wholesale business of eyewear and currently has a reach in 20 states with more than 3000 retail store connections.
Intense Focus designs and manufactures design-focused eyewear for kids, adults, and youth.
After that initial pitch, the founder demanded INR 5 Crores for 5% equity at a valuation of INR 100 Crores.
After that, the Sharks started asking various questions about his business:
- Peyush Bansal appreciated his pitch and asked him about his background, the story behind the brand, and more details.
- Azhar Iqubal asked the founder about his vision and how he will achieve this.
- Amit Jain asked him about his business model and what type of audience they focus on. After that, they asked him about his revenue numbers for the last few months.
- Anupam Mittal asked the founder to showcase some of his products with the Sharks so that they could touch and feel them.
- After checking the products, the Sharks asked about their pricing strategy, and market scope for that price range.
- Namita Thapar told the founder that she was not able to find any design uniqueness is his products and for the same reason she got out of the deal.
After all the discussion, the founder was not able to receive any investment offer from Shark Tank India.
