What Happened to Richibrown Organic Botox After Dragons’ Den?
Richibrown Organic Botox appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2011, Series 9 Episode 9. The business was a all-natural anti-ageing product. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2018.
The Pitch
John Richardson walked into the Den in 2011 with a all-natural anti-ageing product. 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 John Richardson left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Richibrown Organic Botox did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2018, 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 Richibrown Organic Botox Still in Business?
No. Richibrown Organic Botox is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
