Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Pop&Go Knickers After Dragons’ Den?
Pop&Go Knickers appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2014, Series 11 Episode 7. The business was a travel underwear for women. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2018.
The Pitch
Aurora Tyas walked into the Den in 2014 with a travel underwear for women. They were asking for £65,000 in exchange for 20% 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 Aurora Tyas left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Pop&Go Knickers did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2018, some 4 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 Pop&Go Knickers Still in Business?
No. Pop&Go Knickers is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is dissolved (2018).
