But that’s not the only intriguingly simple product viewers have seen on “Shark Tank.” What about the Rapid Ramen Cooker? It might seem to most people like cooking a package of ramen couldn’t get any quicker. After all, that’s why it’s such a popular convenience meal (15 packets of ramen were sold for every person on Earth in 2010, according to Vox).

Being on television and getting an investment from Mark Cuban certainly helped the business, says Rapid Brands CEO Chris Johnson, but the journey didn’t stop there. “That’s where that work ethic comes in. You got to continue to build this without the exposure, without the 10 to 15 million viewers,” Johnson shared with ABC10 in 2016.
It seems like he was adept at bridging the gap between television and reality. According to the Shark Tank Blog, as of 2022, Rapid Brands had an annual revenue of $5 million, and has made more than $55 million in total sales since its “Shark Tank” debut all those years ago.
