What Happened to TinyDeol.com After Dragons’ Den?
TinyDeol.com appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2008, Series 6 Episode 7. The business was a fat free curry sauces. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2015.
The Pitch
Tiny Deol walked into the Den in 2008 with a fat free curry sauces. They were asking for £52,000 in exchange for 15% 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 Tiny Deol left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
TinyDeol.com did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2015, some 7 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 TinyDeol.com Still Available?
No. Curryslim Limited is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
