A Perfect Pear is a premium apple brand founded by Susan Knapp. The company is known for its apple sauce, applesauce, and other apple preserves. These products not only offer a distinct flavor but are also designed to maximize the health benefits of apples. A Perfect Pear has a strong presence in the market, with products distributed in over 650 stores and also available online.
The company got off to a promising start when it appeared on Shark Tank, where Susan convinced the Sharks with nearly $700,000 in sales and a strong market presence. However, despite a brief period of strong growth, A Perfect Pear was unable to sustain operations and eventually ceased operations in February 2010. However, the experience on Shark Tank helped the company gain attention and support from investors, allowing them to expand their market and increase production in a short period of time.
