Flatlining sales to 6 figures: How Mark Cuban helped pivot this vegan deli meat company for the pandemic. (via CNBCMakeIt)

Since Unreal Deli's plant-based meat was exclusively sold in 175 deli and restaurant locations in the U.S., "our sales were flatlining," Goldfarb said.While her business struggled, Goldfarb also experienced the impact of Covid-19 in her personal life, as her father tested positive and spent 28 days on a ventilator before recovering, she said.

Unreal Deli initially only offered vegan, plant-based corned beef made from beets, chickpeas, tomatoes and spice, but for the pivot, the company created a turkey option as well to package and sell in retail stores. One pound of sliced Unreal corned beef or of sliced Unreal turkey is sold for $26, according to the company's website. A $250 grocery pack includes 25 five-ounce packages of Unreal corned beef and 25 packages of Unreal turkey.This pivot into retail "saved the business," Goldfarb said, "and made this whole nightmare story into something really wonderful."
