What Happened to Flower Fountain After Dragons’ Den?
Flower Fountain appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2012, Series 10 Episode 1. The business was a petals and confetti air launching device. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2015.
The Pitch
Osman Gulum walked into the Den in 2012 with a petals and confetti air launching device. 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 Osman Gulum left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Flower Fountain did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2015, only 3 years after the Den appearance.
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 Flower Fountain Still in Business?
No. Flower Fountain is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
