What Happened to Kompo After Dragons’ Den?
Kompo appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2026, Series 23 Episode 6. The business was a countertop food composting gadget. They secured investment from Suzie Ma on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Ben McGirr walked into the Den in 2026 with a countertop food composting gadget. They were asking for £68,000 in exchange for 35% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Suzie Ma offered £68,000 for 35%, and Ben McGirr accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
Kompo is one of those Den stories that actually lasted.
Is Kompo Still in Business?
Yes. Kompo appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
