Whatever Happened To The Coop After Shark Tank?

It turns out that Boydstun and Lent's dream of growing their company into a franchise has come true, thanks in part to Corcoran's investment. According to The Coop's official website, there are now seven different Coop locations in existence. As of press time, they sport six establishments in California and one in Austin, Texas. The business is still looking to branch out and is still advertising for franchisees.

While many play place businesses have gone by the wayside due to the pandemic, The Coop has managed to survive by offering $5,000 party-to-go packages and virtual party activities. Instead of heading to a The Coop location, parents and guardians can bring the party home, complete with themed food and banners while the party is run and catered by the company. The company's gift shop also offers Coop Crates — favor bags, decorations, and centerpieces that can run anywhere from $25 to $50 apiece. All of the positive publicity they've garnered from their "Shark Tank" appearances has resulted in a lot of ink and a ton of celebrity clients. Per their press section, celebs like Julie Bowen have brought their broods to The Coop locales for parties.

While it definitely wasn't the most expensive deal ever seen on "Shark Tank," The Coop has managed to net Corcoran and the others a pretty penny. Per a 2016 appearance on "Beyond the Tank," the company was then worth a combined $3.4 million across all of its locations. Now that's something worth celebrating.
