What Happened to Equisafety Ltd After Dragons’ Den?
Equisafety Ltd appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2015, Series 12 Episode 7. The business was a high-visibility clothing and gear. They secured investment from Piers Linney and Duncan Bannatyne on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Nicky Fletcher walked into the Den in 2015 with a high-visibility clothing and gear. They were asking for £100,000 in exchange for 30% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Piers Linney and Duncan Bannatyne offered £100,000 for 30%, and Nicky Fletcher accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
Equisafety Ltd is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2015, the company has now been trading for well over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Equisafety Ltd Still in Business?
Yes. Equisafety Ltd appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
