What Happened to Yogiyo After Dragons’ Den?

Yogiyo appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2015, Series 13 Episode 6. The business was a korean home cooking range. They secured investment from Peter Jones on the show. The business is still active today.

The Pitch

Ben and Sue Youn walked into the Den in 2015 with a korean home cooking range. They were asking for £50,000 in exchange for 33% of the business.

The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.

The Deal

A deal was struck on the show. Peter Jones offered £50,000 for 33%⅓, and Ben and Sue Youn accepted.

It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.

What Happened After the Show

Yogiyo is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2015, the company has now been trading for well over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.

Is Yogiyo Still in Business?

Yes. Yogiyo appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
