Dragons’ Den Tracker

The Pitch

Scott and David Borthwick walked into the Den in 2021 with a darts themed alcoholic drinks range. They were asking for N/A.

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 Scott and David Borthwick left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Double Trouble Drinks did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2022 — 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 Double Trouble Drinks Still in Business?

No. Double Trouble Drinks is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
