Shark Tank is all-new on ABC this week. There are four companies entering the tank on Friday, April 9, each with hopeful entrepreneurs trying to make a deal with the sharks. The businesses pitching their products in this episode are: The Cheese Chopper, Fur Zapper, Matte, and OpulenceMD. Last week we saw DynoSafe, Phoozy, and others strike a deal with the sharks.

So, what are these companies entering the tank on April 9th all about? What do they sell, and who are the people behind them? Get all that information below.

The Cheese Chopper

THE CHEESE CHOPPER, SHARK TANK
(ABC)

Tate Koenig is the man behind The Cheese Chopper. His product is a user-friendly, high quality cooking accessory that shreds, slices, and stores cheeses effectively. So, if you’re looking to save money, or are tired of nicking your fingers on graters, try out Tate’s invention. You simply place the cheese on the chopping block, then choose one of the blades to use. Turn the wheel and push the handle through to get your desired cheese “style.”

Fur Zapper

FUR ZAPPER, SHARK TANK
(ABC)

Michael Sweigart is somewhat of a laundry master. He does laundry for his family of 8 every day, and he used to run in to the same problem all the time: pet hair getting caught on clothes. So, he wanted to create a solution: fur zapper. It’s a silicone-based pet hair picker-upper, working in washers and dryers to remove the hair without damaging fabric. It’s also easy to clean off, and you can keep reusing it.

Matte

MATTE, SHARK TANK
(ABC)

Melissa Clayton grew tired of using her bathroom sink or toilet seat as a counter to balance her makeup. So, she decided to create something small enough to fit on a bathroom counter but sturdy enough to hold a couple pounds worth of cosmetics. Enter: The Matte Makeup Organizer. It’s a makeup storage mat that can fit over your sink, making getting ready a breeze. It’s become so popular that it was featured on The TODAY Show!
