What Happened to Roto Suite After Dragons’ Den?
Roto Suite appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2009, Series 7 Episode 2. The business was a revolving en-suite bathroom. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2010.
The Pitch
David Thomas walked into the Den in 2009 with a revolving en-suite bathroom. They were asking for £100,000.
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 David Thomas left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Roto Suite did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2010 — just a year after appearing on the show.
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 Roto Suite Still in Business?
No. Roto Suite is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
