What Happened to Flip It Sales After Dragons’ Den?
Flip It Sales appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2011, Series 9 Episode 8. The business was a foldaway furniture. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2019.
The Pitch
Marion Mainstone walked into the Den in 2011 with a foldaway furniture. They were asking for £200,000.
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 Marion Mainstone left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Flip It Sales did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2019, some 8 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 Flip It Sales Still in Business?
No. Flip It Sales is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is dissolved (2019).
