What Happened to Easy Tank After Dragons’ Den?

Easy Tank appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2006, Series 3 Episode 5. The business was a portable water storage container. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The current status of the business is not publicly known.

The Pitch

Jim Tucker walked into the Den in 2006 with a portable water storage container. 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 Jim Tucker left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Easy Tank did not survive long-term. The company has since been dissolved.

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 Easy Tank Still in Business?

No. Easy Tank is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
