What Happened to Baby Go After Dragons’ Den?
Baby Go appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2008, Series 6 Episode 7. The business was a individual disposable nappy packets. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2014.
The Pitch
Elizabeth Pimm walked into the Den in 2008 with a individual disposable nappy packets. They were asking for £120,000.
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 Elizabeth Pimm left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Baby Go did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2014, some 6 years after the pitch.
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 Baby Go Still Available?
No. Granny Products Limited is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
