What Happened to Poo Pod After Dragons’ Den?
Poo Pod appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2008, Series 6 Episode 4. The business was a dog handle with scooping container. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2015.
The Pitch
Sue Bell walked into the Den in 2008 with a dog handle with scooping container. 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 Sue Bell left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Poo Pod did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2015, 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 Poo Pod Still in Business?
No. Poo Pod is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is dissolved (2015).
