Whatever Happened To Bantam Bagels?

Elyse Oleksak admitted that it took hundreds of applications for her and her husband to land a chance to pitch on the show, and when they got their shot in 2015, they didn't waste it. The Oleksaks ask for $275,000 in exchange for an 11% stake in the company, and initially, it looks like they might get turned down. Robert Herjavec is not impressed by their Wall Street background and feels that their financial situation might translate into a lack of entrepreneurial desperation. Mark Cuban is put off by the business' lack of strategy, and while he feels like the product has potential, he's not willing to undertake the expensive journey of helping the couple discover their market.

Barbara Corcoran and Kevin O'Leary are both interested in getting into business with Bantam Bagels — but at a high cost. Corcoran offers $275,000 in exchange for 51% of the business, arguing that the couple won't succeed without her. O'Leary suggests $275,000 for 50% of the business, but his potential deal comes with a few caveats: The Oleksaks have to quit their jobs, they have to use a commercial kitchen, and they have to sell directly to consumers.

Bantam Bagels' saving grace comes in the form of Greiner. She offers $275,000 for a 30% stake in the company but agrees to Elyse's counteroffer of 25%.
