Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to The Tiny Workbench After Dragons’ Den?
The Tiny Workbench appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2022, Series 19 Episode 14. The business was a self crafted tabletop workbenches. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company went into liquidation in 2023.
The Pitch
Victoria Barry and Michael Robinson walked into the Den in 2022 with a self crafted tabletop workbenches. They were asking for £60,000 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 Victoria Barry and Michael Robinson left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
The Tiny Workbench did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2023 — 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 The Tiny Workbench Still in Business?
No. The Tiny Workbench is no longer in business. Based on available records, the company is liquidation (2023).
