Emirati entrepreneur Qadreya Al Awadhi has clinched an investment deal for its nutritious baby and toddler food brand, Bumblebee Food, on Shark Tank Dubai.
Al Awadhi's was only seeking AED 50,000 ($13,614) for a 10% stake in her company valued at AED 1.5 million. Judges were surprised she didn't ask for more.
The response was positive, with three Sharks - Faisal Juma Belhoul, Amira Sajwani, and Noor Sweid.
Bumblebee is a pre-made frozen meal plan created by a child dietitian and trained chef for infants and toddlers with a wide array of options, from fruits and vegetables to proteins.
The company employs recyclable pouches that are BPA-free and food-grade.
