Season 18, Episode 14
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.

He was rock solid - hope he has a lot of success
Pause
Rock solid just like me
@@gerardford9706 What when your in the boys shower bwahahaha jk
Was a defintiley a business proposition worth chewing over
Absolutely one of the best performances in the den. Dude is on point !
He went on to secure a deal with waitrose and is now HUGE.
I feel like the natural response to "why doesn't Wrigley's introduce this?" is something along the lines of "because they'd have to admit their product has been full of literal plastic for decades" 😅 Brands don't want to make moves that jeopardize their entrenched position.
And they get lazy. He even used the example of Heinekken. Also, they often feel it's easier to let the small guys prove proof of concept and then buy up because they're so lazy.
I honestly think the Dragons were wrong and out of touch here, which is something I rarely think.
but it happened in the teabag industry...
There's no need to "admit" anything if it's shown to be true.
@@JeremiahEcks777it's not lazy, it's effective. You don't need to do every single thing in the world
For 50k this product is worth a punt. The presenter is also solid and seems to know what he's doing.

DO LET US KNOW THE NEXT TIME YOU TAKE A "PUNT" WITH "FIFTY KAY" OF YOUR OWN MONEY...HAVE YOU GOT 50P?.
@@HIOP0 $50K not kay
@@getin3949 SHAME THAT YOU ARE NOT CAPABLE OF PAYING ATTENTION. I REPEATED SPEECH, I DID NOT REPEAT WRITTEN WORDS AND IN ANY CASE, IT WOULD BE £50K. HOPE THAT HELPS... COULD CARE LESS IF IT DOES NOT.
Shame you're not capable of disengaging caps lock.@@HIOP0
Incredible pitch, it was such a nice touch that he dressed like a bubble gum!
🤣🤣🤣
i could chew him
This dude is an absolute juggernaut
what a confident smart man
Tried the gum today, it's actually way tastier than anything I'd tried before. I'll be sticking to non-plastic gum from now on!
I've been swallowing my gum my whole life, and only now I find out it's plastic????
I can only see this business going up , cause who wants to chew plastic straws & even worse children chewing & possibly swallowing all that plastic it’s a no brainier on a cellular level plastic is very bad for the body & all life forms !!
DON'T BE DESPONDANT, LOOK AT THE HUGE SUCCESS YOU HAVE MADE OF YOURSELF...
Best pitch I have seen on Dragon's Den! This guy is good!!!! Damn!!!
Original gum was natural resin from the Chicle tree. Then, due to environmental concerns, they made a synthetic version. Now, people are realizing that synthetic gum contains synthetic ingredients (shocker!) so they want a plant based version. Ironic?
And literally not a single one of them can explain why they don't want synthetic ingredients.
What they failed to see is that this guy clearly has the capability and potential to create other plant-based alternatives, not just chewing gum. He wasn't being an "actor", he's a finely researched and informed professional. I think someone should've given him a chance....I was hoping Tej. :(
Nothing he has achieved really points to that. It's not his formulation or invention, he has a licence to sell it. Sure he could go scour the market for other plant based formulations, but so could the dragons on their own.
@@jakecooper5855 Good point there! I guess I'm just in disbelief that, out of all the weird illogical deals we've seen, someone like that didn't get one. It's such a shame!
@@sjfortune I get that, the point I'm making is.....he would've had answers to so much more. Pity.
You've misunderstood like 90% of this video.
YOU ARE (OF COURSE) RIGHT, THEY FAILED COMPLETELY TO SEE THE FUTURE VISION AND POTENTIAL OF THIS. LUCKILY FOR THEM, THEIR CONTINUAL NON-STOP FAILURES, MISHAPS AND CATASTROPHIES CONTINUE TO ENRICH THEM, FILLING THEIR POCKETS WITH LOADSA MONEY...GOODNESS KNOWS HOW THEY DO IT, GIVEN THEIR COMPLETE BUSINESS INEPTITUDE...RIGHT SQUISHY?.
Kier has presented so well that he will be successful. Intelligent and quick on his feet with articulate answers backed with credible knowledge. Absolutely sure Kier will get traction and investment.
I love Sarah business acumen, she is great
Only question they should have asked is what is the plan for the future… what other products do we have in mind besides a chewable. Probably should’ve mentioned nicotine based tabs which would make this is ridiculously profitable business
11:12 Best Touker face
Perhaps best pitch I've ever seen, overall
This guy is the absolute best. I think he has got an incredible product. And what's more incredible is he. He doesn't need any brand ambassador. He himself can be the one. He has got lot of credibility. Every word he speaks adds value to his brand. I really hope he and his product are successful.

Ju😅
he knows his stuff -he'll be successful whether its this one or another
I was waiting for Tej to suggest adding vitamins to it ... 😊
I was in on the work when Wrigley Field replaced the old wooden seats. There were two inch thick mats in front of the concession stands made from discarded chewing gum.
Best pitch ive seen so far
When did this episode air? Because I still haven’t seen the “big boy” companies over taking this lane with the plant based vegan gums in my big local tesco. Has anyone else? Can someone please get him into Tesco!!
Wyd you up?
He still sells online. Look up Nuud gum
Not chewing gum is the solution over vegan gum cuz most ppl aren’t addicted to chewing gum.
His business? Hopefully dissolved by now (yes pun intended)
I notice that Morrisons, Waitrose and WH Smith sell it
Excellent idea!
Looks like he got 750k investment after the show.
I would have given him all he was asking for
He’s well worth it. Their loss entirely
Good luck to him
Wow, he had trouble getting this Gum off the ground 😂
RichTheBitch
Who is Gum?
This guy came ready for the dragons … love it
Now in Waitrose, Morrisons and WH Smith.
His pitch was so good he made me want to invest! and I’m broke….but damn it I will invest!
Toukar's face lol.
Well done.
That was really surprising result.
13:03 I can’t believe she actually seems to be genuinely asking that.
Entrepreneurs nowadays LOVE saying "Disrupted" or "I'm disrupting the market!"
It makes them feel like they are techbros.
When Dragons like what they hear, they always do this specific smirk 2:34
Solid dude 😎
The major issue is the cost.... Damn 44p is crazy.... If they could bring the price down it would be something they could have taken a shot at..... But yeah the guy had amazing answers for everything
Amazing pitch, hope he makes it big, anyone know how he's doing...?
I read an article about him landing great deals with multiple leading supermarkets just a few months after appearing on Dragon's Den and one of the judges from the show admitted they were wrong. His business seems to be doing pretty great and growing steadily 😊
He got stocked at Waitrose and received a deal for £750,000 from a candy company.
I hope he’s not chewing over the figures
I've seen it in Waitrose.
@user-un2qo9ux1v go away scammer
Such a good product I wish they invested
He's smart person
Watching this while having my cold drink with a plastic straw. Not paper with toxins in the glue.
Have a drink every time someone says "disrupt(ed)". You'll be comatose by the end.
Damn love that naughty lil beat at 4:10! Great vibes
trappin in the den
This guys gonna be sitting at the Dragons table one day...👍
The investment would have been less than that guys wages for a year. I'm surprised one of them didnt just snap it up for a big % and look at what else they could produce . Hope he does well
I wish all the very best. I pray he is successful
Regardless what this guy will be doing, he will be successful.
I would be interested to learn about the further fate of successful investment campaigns of applicants who have passed the investment stage.
It's a pity that this show is limited to pitching only.
And, very often, even if they agree in the den. The deals often fall through after the show.
there was a sort of spin off that aired in about 2016 about where products that left the den where now, the ones that made it that is.
Tej didn't give a valid reason why he was out... Seems like he was just following the others. Initially seemed very keen and interested
The bags under his eyes told him not to
...Success is not achieved by following others !
What are you talking about. He had issues with the price since the beginning.
He should of done some bubby gum with a magic trick and when the bubble burst loads of money came out! Now that would be a new one for the Den!
If I was a dragon I woulda given him a go, he seemed smart, couldn't fault his pitch, shame on the dragons.
How is a plastic straw socially unacceptable? The replacement is horrible and plastic straws were removed from our industries without our consent and there has been no good alternative
WELL THEY ASKED ME, YOUR OPINION CLEARLY COUNTS FOR NAUGHT.
I suppose the one reason others haven't done it is due to the shelf life of it?
Sustainability. It would totally break the demand-production curve, leading to incredibly high prices and would create a need for huge plantations, leading to deforestation and every ill aspect of intensive monoculture farming.
Sometimes the Dragons get it wrong. Plant based products are in high demand.
There is no way there is an entire straw worth of plastic in any piece of gum..
Plastic straws are banned but plastic lids are fine
I am sure that his bussiness will successful 💯💥
I get this now and again from Co Op. it’s good stuff. I’d disagree on the barriers to entry. Virtually every shop or service station only stocks Extra and it’s clearly got a monopoly.
That was harsh considering how they got the nside information. And then told him to go on his own. What chance does he have. The public should get behind him with his business being plant based. Agricultural business and online sales being two big sources of assistance. I hope he does well. It is not over yet.
Bonsai tree demonstrations
Too many camera zooms!
Tea bags have plastic also!? WTH 🤢
Did they ask him about sales? Or was this presented before mass market launch?
2:21 a bulldog chewing a wasp
Nice
Chewing gum is not made from plastic; it's made from rubber.
The tea bag is the the tea!
Since when have plastic straws been banned? There everywhere here.
£15 every 8 weeks on 2 pieces a day is an insane cost
Boy oh boy….”chewing gum problem”?? Wow what a world
Seems like a great product and he does very well, but he needs to work on his 'disappointed/annoyed' face at 8:44 if he doesn't want to offend other dragons. It was a rare lapse in an otherwise very good performance.
Does anyone know how he’s doing in 2023?
Nuud Snacks LTD showing capital reserves of over £700,000 on their latest accounts, so looks like they’re doing well!
Plastic straws aren't banned.
Man, feel for the dude. But the dragons are probably right. It's crazy how much plastic people consume, on Joe Rogan's podcast he was saying how people are consuming a credit card worth of plastic a week! not a month or year, but a week! Crazy stuff.
You can't protect your product... its done~
Any update on him?

@@ricknelsonm Thanks!
Nuud Snacks Ltd - net assets over £700,000 at March22. Looks like a market that was waiting for someone to get into. Plastic free - common sense.
I love the brand Simply gum, which is plastic free and delicious.
Surprised no one said ”Sorry to burst your bubble”
YOU JUST DID, YOU 1D10T.
Should’ve asked what else he has up his sleeve. He’s worth £50k
It would impress me far more if a contestant could begin an answer with a word other than
‘ So’
Anyone else see in a huge problem with retailers wanting over 50% profit? Kinda greedy. We need lower margin retail outlets.
50% margin, not profit. They have to cover all their expenses and overhead from that, of which there is an enormous amount. Wages, rent, utilities, insurance, spoilage/shrinkage etc. Most grocery stores run in the single digits of net profit margin percentage.
DO YOU THINK THE SHAREHOLDERS, THOSE THAT OWN AND MAKE THESE RETAILERS VIABLE, WOULD AGREE WITH YOU?. IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH THE MARGIN, DON'T BUY THE PRODUCT. YOUR REASONING OS THE SAME LAMEBRAIN IDEA OF TAKING A PROGRAMME OFF AIR BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE IT, MOST FOLKS WOULD JUST TELL YOU TO SWITCH CHANNELS. F00L.
@@HIOP0 Are you a shareholder?
Hello dragons happy holiday to y'all 🎉🇹🇹🇮🇱🎉
I think Deborah should have invested, even if it was purely charity. Because without help I don't think he's going to make even a rub mark let alone a dent. I still choose my favourite flavour of Wrigleys off the shelf, I barely even have to look at the shelf, which is full of one brand only. It's not even a shelf its a stand alone unit in almost every shop.
Chewing gum isn't made from rabbit skin, it is made from elephants toenails.
Feel bad for the guy. Great product that needs some dragons help. It’s visible to have alternatives to the big boys.
They didn't even ask about his turnover
IT WAS APPLE...
What a breath of fresh air, makes such a nice change from mindless idiots pitching nonsense.
All you have to do is offer a big TH-cam ie pewdiepie, dude perfect, Mr beast etc a cut of profits in return for a mention on their channel over night it will be a massive hit selling 10s of millions just like that
Take it straight to Wrigleys
No matter what the gum is made from it will not stop lazy gits spitting it on the footpaths and roads.
F me this guys f ING brilliant
Peter used to have a go at people dressed casually but he doesn't seem to do that any more
For me it’s the price, if it’s cheaper and still nice, I will buy the best one for me, saving the planet, someone else can do that.
Chewy chompin Tej’s taste test…..
Great pitch
Confident in his answers
Knows his product
It's just 50'000 , to the dragons that money is nothing or a vacation.
This product is really great and definitely would have been a game changer.
Ppl chewing on plastics rather than plants all bcoz of profits .
That's the problem in this world.
Hope he gets a loan and hire a marketing team. Don't give up.
He did well after this got some good contracts worth around 400000
Deb is all talk. At the end of the day, she just wants to exploit and make money. But she sings 'environment' and 'sustainability'.
