Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Tidy Tree Sack After Dragons’ Den?
Tidy Tree Sack appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2007, Series 5 Episode 9. The business was a fold-away bag for christmas trees. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2010.
The Pitch
Tim Lloyd walked into the Den in 2007 with a fold-away bag for christmas trees. They were asking for £150,000 in exchange for 40% 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 Tim Lloyd left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Tidy Tree Sack did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2010, only 3 years after the Den appearance.
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 Tidy Tree Sack Still in Business?
No. Tidy Tree Sack is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
