The short answer is yes. Skinnydip has grown well beyond anything discussed in the Den that day.
The Terms And What Followed
The brand's ask was £120,000 for 30 percent, and the record shows Peter Jones was the one who took the deal on camera, after more than one Dragon competed for a piece of the business.
Reporting since the show describes that on-air agreement never completing once the cameras stopped rolling, which for plenty of companies would mark the start of a struggle. Here, it did not.
Growth Without The Investment
Rather than chase a replacement investor, the founders reinvested money coming in from wholesale and concession sales, using the retail side to fund its own expansion rather than relying on outside capital.
By previous accounts, Skinnydip now runs several of its own stores, including a flagship on Carnaby Street, and sells through more than a hundred concessions across roughly sixty countries.
