What Happened to Planthood After Dragons’ Den?
Planthood appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2023, Series 20 Episode 8. The business was a subscription based vegan meal delivery. They secured investment from Steven Bartlett on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Hilary Kennedy and Will Moxham walked into the Den in 2023 with a subscription based vegan meal delivery. They were asking for £75,000 in exchange for 7.5% 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. Steven Bartlett offered £75,000 for 7.5%, and Hilary Kennedy and Will Moxham 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
Planthood is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. The company has now been trading for around 3 years since the pitch.
Is Planthood Still in Business?
Yes. Planthood appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
