Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Body Bottle After Dragons’ Den?
Body Bottle appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2013, Series 11 Episode 1. The business was a body length hot water bottle. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2018.
The Pitch
Richard Yu walked into the Den in 2013 with a body length hot water bottle. They were asking for £50,000.
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 Richard Yu left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Body Bottle did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2018, some 5 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 Body Bottle Still in Business?
No. Body Bottle is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is dissolved (2018).
