Ronan McCarthy has secured two concessions, one at London Heathrow Terminal 1 and London Stansted, Ronan's seeking an investment of £108k in return for a 10% equity stake of The Spit 'n' Polish Shoeshine Company but can the entrepreneur justify such high numbers?
An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

What his projections seem to miss out is the general decline from smart formal wear to more casual clothing across the board from business meetings to every day wear. There's a reason the barbers no longer have shoe shine seats! And then throw in technology advancements with more meetings being online (and even more so since covid).....it just seems unrealistic that he took 7 an hour per day, 365 days a year as the baseline projections and didn't factor in anything else!

@@kevinsoo633 come on now, that's a bit of a silly question, isn't it? A) he was going to provide the full capitalisation he was asking for, which up to that point nobody else had. Without capital, a business like that will struggle getting off the ground. B) he is a successful businessman who's been there and done it. So, his background may not be in shoe shining (I imagine few people's are). However, he can still push things in the right direction and probably has contacts who could've helped. End of the day, I'm no business person so I could be talking crap.

Many other people wear trainers/sneakers or even sandals when taking a flight because the feet won't feel pinched by tight shoes.

I also assume the world also has changed in terms of class system. People shine their own shoes if they need their shoes shined. It’s like how people used to have others fuel up cars. People now do things themselves. Especially simpler things like shining shoes. Sure it may not be the standard a trained shiner could but good enough.

They had tint batteries of like 2-300mah, they didn't need fast charge. Those batteries could also last a week, so when it takes less than an hour for a full charge, a 5 min boost is quite useful.

I had no idea this was even a thing anymore. I thought 21st century people clean and shine their own shoes, even busy business men or have someone else shine them for them when not wearing them. I can't imagine anyone these days stopping on the streets or at a station just to get their shoes cleaned. Sounds so 19th century / early 20th century to me.

Its a win win for the dragon. But yes, shoe shining? in England? in 2021? really.? You would do better sat in rags with a a begging bowl.
