As of 2024, Plated no longer operates as a standalone business. Their products are currently unavailable at market.

Conclusion

Some companies that appear on the show have not achieved great success, and the Plated was one of them. Sometimes businesses don’t succeed because of many reasons. Sometimes, the deal falls through after the founders say yes on camera. Or, as you’ll see, sometimes things happen to the founders themselves, and they choose to abandon the business. Anything is possible. Boise acquired Plated for $300 Million in 2017. However,  Plated went out of business in 2019. And the product is no longer available in the market.
