Parker’s Real Maple is a company run by young entrepreneur Joshua Parker in his small-town home of Canton, New York. He started the company when he was 11 (in 2009) and expanded the product line to include Maple Butter and Organic Maple Cotton Candy. When 18, he pitched his business on Shark Tank (October 2016). They Sharks were impressed with Parker but, alas, the young man didn’t get a deal on the show.

One year after his appearance on Shark Tank, Parker has been able to get his product on the shelves of giant retail stores including Costco and Whole Foods Markets. And on a personal note, Joshua has expanded his family too – he is now married and a father to a baby boy (see cute family photo below). New episodes of Shark Tank (Season 10, 2018) air Sunday nights on ABC. [27 Favorite Shark Tank Products at Amazon — New List]
