Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Haggis Dog After Dragons’ Den?
Haggis Dog appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2011, Series 9 Episode 8. The business was a spiced haggis dish. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2011.
The Pitch
Mark Shaw walked into the Den in 2011 with a spiced haggis dish. They were asking for £50,000.
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 Mark Shaw left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Haggis Dog did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2011 — 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 Haggis Dog Still in Business?
No. Haggis Dog is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
