The Terms
The Davises asked for £100,000 for 50 percent of the company, giving up half the business, and James Caan and Duncan Bannatyne backed it jointly at that exact split.
Two operators known for scrutinising margins agreeing to split a deal rather than one taking the whole stake suggested real confidence in a founder-run food business with a working product already on the table.
Real Shelf Space
Not long after the show, the range reportedly landed a supply deal with Asda, with manufacturing shifted to a Derby factory run by S&A Foods, a move said to follow Bannatyne's own advice on getting production properly industrialised.
Landing space on a major supermarket's shelves off a single television appearance is a genuine result, well past the sampling stage that swallows most food pitches whole.
How This Kind Of Business Runs
Food and drink producers can keep trading for years on steady wholesale accounts without generating fresh press or an obvious public storefront, since the business runs through buyers rather than shoppers.
