Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Reverend Berriman's After Dragons’ Den?
Reverend Berriman's appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2010, Series 8 Episode 5. The business was a spicy fizzy cola range. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Reverend John Berriman walked into the Den in 2010 with a spicy fizzy cola range. They were asking for £75,000.
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 Reverend John Berriman left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Reverend Berriman's is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2010, the company has now been trading for well over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Reverend Berriman's Still in Business?
