Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Funky Christmas Jumpers After Dragons’ Den?
Funky Christmas Jumpers appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2015, Series 13 Episode 9. The business was a christmas clothing ranges. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2015.
The Pitch
Fabio Molle walked into the Den in 2015 with a christmas clothing ranges. They were asking for £75,000 in exchange for 10% of the business.
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 Fabio Molle left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Funky Christmas Jumpers did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2015 — 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 Funky Christmas Jumpers Still in Business?
No. Funky Christmas Jumpers is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
