Seems like a tragic case of right product, wrong company

[@5tyyu]

Licensing deals never work on the den. Dragons can easily call the Indonesian company & become sole distributor themselves

1:56 I thought he was about to drink it!

[@infjmale91]

Ah this reminds me of the good old "Candy Floss" bag. Made of sugar but terrible when wet.

[@freedomutopuia]

Peter is actually pitching the manufacturers to give him the license - not to invest in these guys. Clever

[@atelierbunny]

I guarantee if they drank the bag liquid and actually talked about the product then they'd have got a dragon

Hope he is a better manager.

Soon Deborah will stop coming to the show cause it creates too much CO2.

[@shadaba.qureshi4367]

with 1 million turnover in 1st year itself, why would they need a dra-goon, on a licensed product,?

[@AliKhan-yx1dy]

Deborah is to smart once she gets hold of the documents it's over u be leaving with no deal

[@DennisHeikki]

So uninteresting when they show an interesting product, but really don't have anything. They're just salespeople who don't know what they should know.

I love dragons den it's brill

Come get your black bin bags, on sale until november!

[@darshanjoshi7193]

They bottled it so badly

[@madpax5000]

Deborah exposed nothing, the guy in white did it single handedly. This was a perfect pitch to dissuade willing investors to change their minds and not invest. The kind of guy you would not want to hire in any company!

I heard he's working for Twitter/X now.

the Aussies' shark tank understand the issues, raised, but they don't shy away from the R&D of the commodity is handed on a silver platter and the Aussies would still invest but at a higher % ,,,dutch dragons den, is about up and around one million Euros requests.

[@joker6solitaire]

I was instantly put off from the first two words of the presentation: "Dear Dragons..." They're not writing a letter! The native English speaker in that pair should have corrected his colleague beforehand. But worse than that, of course, is that their presentation doesn't tell ANYTHING about what the product is made of nor what chemicals it disintegrates into. I'm shocked that none of the Dragons demanded that information immediately. How foolish of everyone in that room.

Money is funny isn’t it lady’s is has to be full proof for the dragons ladies

[@moogleking]

You have to know everything related to the carbon footprint and energy consumption for Deborah otherwise she loses it completely lol

[@JamesCarter1998]

Nothing wrong with being thorough 😅 and I feel like it’s better than what a lot of businesses do, which is prop up products just because they use nice buzzwords like “eco-friendly” or “carbon neutral” but don’t actually do anything to try and solve environmental problems…so I kinda respect the fact that she does her due diligence with this stuff

[@beancheese3148]

@@JamesCarter1998 me too! It really shows she actually cares and doesn’t do it just for the show

[@jasonstrange3481]

i think her point is that if you are going to be an eco friendly business it needs to be eco all the way and not just a selling point, so yes they should have known

[@johnchapmonkey8933]

If you are pitching for a eco friendly product, you should know all that.

[@livingwithosteoarthritis.]

Electric cars are no greener than a normal car. The emissions don’t come out the back of the car but out of a massive chimney somewhere else

[@lee6023]

No she's not, please backup that Vile comment

[@dianp4824]

This is the issue with the world. People invent the eco friendly products and then there are the rich who find ways and tricks not to invest in it. The product is obviously better than plastic. What could go wrong with a 50k investment with all of them sitting with millions in their bank accounts? That's like a 5 euro for an ordinary person. Not to mention that they already made 1 million pounds turnover.

[@SB-rf8vo]

They didn't make millions by investing in any ol product, they invest in lucrative businesses otherwise, what's the point? It'd be great if they were purely driven by making the environment better but they're dragons, they're not.

[@anthosm]

for starters is 150K they want. Secondly these people didn't become millionaires by throwing away tons of money at whatever comes in front of them.
