GreenBox: What Happened To Pizza Delivery Boxes After Shark Tank by 2Paragraphs in Business Spotlight, Shark Tank | April 5, 2019 GreenBox is a pizza delivery box made out of recycled cardboard that can be broken down into plates and storage containers. The eco-friendly patented pizza box is perforated so the top can tear easily and be separated into four plates. No need to waste paper plates or wash dishes. The bottom is also perforated so that it can bend and fold over the slices you haven’t eaten. It becomes a perfect storage container that fits into any refrigerator. The business partners behind GreenBox, Ned Kensing and Jen Wright-Laracy of New York City, pitched their business on Shark Tank in January 2015. They went into the Tank seeking an investment of $300,000 in exchange for 10 percent equity and landed a deal with Kevin O’Leary contingent on a licensing deal with a major pizza delivery chain.
