What Happened to Peaches of London After Dragons’ Den?
Peaches of London appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2007, Series 5 Episode 3. The business was a air popping aid for underwear. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2014.
The Pitch
Dina Parbat walked into the Den in 2007 with a air popping aid for underwear. They were asking for £80,000 in exchange for 12% 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 Dina Parbat left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Peaches of London did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2014, 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 Peaches of London Still in Business?
No. Peaches of London is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
