What Happened to Mi Garden After Dragons’ Den?
Mi Garden appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2009, Series 7 Episode 6. The business was a indoor green house. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2010.
The Pitch
Jonathan Edwards walked into the Den in 2009 with a indoor green house. They were asking for £100,000.
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 Jonathan Edwards left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Mi Garden did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2010 — 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 Mi Garden Still in Business?
No. Mi Garden is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
