Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Air Head Hard Hats After Dragons’ Den?
Air Head Hard Hats appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2008, Series 6 Episode 5. The business was a personalised construction hard harts. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2009.
The Pitch
Andrew Cunningham walked into the Den in 2008 with a personalised construction hard harts. They were asking for £150,000 in exchange for 25% of the business.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Andrew Cunningham left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Air Head Hard Hats did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2009 — just a year after appearing on the show.
This is not an unusual outcome. The majority of businesses that appear on Dragons’ Den, deal or no deal, don’t make it in the long run. The show can provide a platform and capital, but it can’t substitute for a sustainable business model.
Is Air Head Hard Hats Still in Business?
No. Air Head Hard Hats is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is dissolved (2009).
