Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to K92 Co After Dragons’ Den?
K92 Co appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2005, Series 2 Episode 4. The business was a aid for collecting animal waste. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2012.
The Pitch
Gary and Lindsay Shuttleworth walked into the Den in 2005 with a aid for collecting animal waste. They were asking for £150,000 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 Gary and Lindsay Shuttleworth left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
K92 Co did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2012, some 7 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 K92 Co Still in Business?
No. K92 Co is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
