Missy MacKintosh is ready to take another stab at the Dragons after a busy 2021.

In April she opened a store for her MisMacK Clean Cosmetics line in her hometown, Salmon Arm. In November, she opened a second MisMacK store on Broad Street in Victoria.

Before both openings, MacKintosh had plans for her business that involved a possible appearance on the CBC television show DragonsB次元官网网址� Den.

In early February, after submitting a successful application to be on the show, she spoke with producers and later wound up working with one who would help MacKintosh perfect her pitch video.
