Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Break Down Visibility After Dragons’ Den?
Break Down Visibility appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2008, Series 6 Episode 5. The business was a high visibility car safety vest. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Bilfer Ecin walked into the Den in 2008 with a high visibility car safety vest. 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 Bilfer Ecin left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Break Down Visibility is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2008, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Break Down Visibility Still Available?
Yes. Budak Projects Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
