"ONES is the passion project of Tyler Harlton from Pense, Sask., and Chris Pagliocchini, a scientist for Agriculture Canada. Harlton is no stranger to the agriculture industry himself, having grown up surrounded by Prairie farms. The ONES owners said their experience on Dragons' Den is an important piece of their success in creating wines that taste and have the texture consumers expect from alcoholic wines. ONES's products contain only 0.5 per cent alcohol and zero sugar."
"Owners of Canada's only non-alcoholic winery ONES have scored a $1 million investment deal from Dragons Dens' beverage industry leader Manjit Minhas for 15 per cent equity. Co-owner Tyler Harlton is originally from Pense, Sask., and says the non-alcoholic beverage industry has experienced significant growth since ONES launched in 2022. Harlton told CBC Saskatchewan that going on Dragons' Den was a big step for him, and ultimately validated what he and Pagliocchini have been working hard at for just under four years."
ONES is a Canadian non-alcoholic winery founded by Tyler Harlton and Chris Pagliocchini. The company produces wines containing 0.5 per cent alcohol and zero sugar with taste and texture similar to alcoholic wines. Launched in 2022, ONES expanded from boutique shops to nearly 600 stores across Canada. The founders attribute part of their success to their Dragons' Den appearance, which demonstrated consistent growth and revenue and led to a $1 million investment from Manjit Minhas for 15 per cent equity. The founders seek additional resources, funding, and expertise to support continued growth.
