What Happened to Storemates After Dragons’ Den?
Storemates appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2012, Series 10 Episode 6. The business was a online storage rental in homes. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2024.
The Pitch
Shaff Prabatani, Jay Bryan and Ben Rogers walked into the Den in 2012 with a online storage rental in homes. They were asking for N/A.
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 Shaff Prabatani, Jay Bryan and Ben Rogers left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Storemates did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2024, some 12 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 Storemates Still in Business?
No. Storemates is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
