Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Text A Potato After Dragons’ Den?
Text A Potato appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2017, Series 15 Episode 3. The business was a vegetable gift service. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Jonathan Brook and Hayley Hollonds walked into the Den in 2017 with a vegetable gift service. They were asking for £40,000 in exchange for 30% 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 Jonathan Brook and Hayley Hollonds left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Text A Potato is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. The business has now been trading for around 9 years since the pitch.
Is Text A Potato Still Available?
Yes. Text-a-potato Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
