Dragons’ Den Tracker

The Pitch

Michael North walked into the Den in 2008 with a subscription to fresh olive oils. They were asking for £50,000 in exchange for 10% 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 Michael North left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Really Fresh Olive Oil Club is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2008, the business has now been trading for over two decades — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.

Is Really Fresh Olive Oil Club Still Available?

Yes. Outstanding Outcomes Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
