  • Well-rounded businessman sold 3,000 products within the space of 4 months but decided to fire his distribution team - this raises red flags for Gavin Duffy. Kevin Walker was seeking an investment of €80,000 in return for a 20% equity stake in 'Olympic Grate Saver' - saves fuel for fireplace owners by slowing down the burning of fuel in open grates, stoves, and ranges.
    Series 6, Episode 2.
    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.

    This is actually a real problem, I actually burn through a grate at a minimum of one every winter. I have decided that I need a piece of metal to go over the grate. I am looking for some suitable metal at the moment but in the meantime, I am making my plate out of aluminum flashing, not a permanent solution but certainly working in the short time I have been using it and it certainly reduces the amount of wood I burn too.

      ​@@adamkhan1296 Actually it's quite not. There are a few definitions for the word sell. No contradiction, though I see your point. Either of these would make sense in Darren's statement:
      1. have a stock of (something) available for sale
      2. persuade someone of the merits of
      Sure a more fitting word would be "vend":
      1. offer (small items, especially food) for sale, especially either from a stall or from a slot machine:
      But for better or worse, in some parts of the world, these two can be used interchangeably.

      Are you burning wood or coal? Coal burns much hotter. I HAD cast iron grates in my gas grill and they go to hell FAST and are expensive to replace. Well over $150.00. Now I have a Weber grill with steel grates and they last 20 years. You pay up front but you get what you pay for in the end.
