What Happened to Perfect Punch After Dragons’ Den?
Perfect Punch appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2012 (Series 10). The business was a festive alcoholic punch. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2018.
The Pitch
Kim and Jack Walmsley walked into the Den in 2012 with a festive alcoholic punch. They were asking for N/A.
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 Kim and Jack Walmsley left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Perfect Punch did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2018, some 6 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 Perfect Punch Still in Business?
No. Perfect Punch is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
