Our read

The Hub verdict

Caravan and motorhome covers are a niche with fiercely loyal customers, and Anne and Keith Proctor tapped it with Pro Tec Covers in season 10. They asked 75,000 pounds for 26%, a valuation just shy of 288,500 pounds. The Proctors secured backing, yet the episode never put the agreed terms on screen, so the 26% is only the number they walked in with. A 26% offer sits in the sensible middle, enough to interest a Dragon without surrendering control of a family business. On the ask itself, the valuation looks well judged for a specialist product with repeat buyers. Reconstructing the undisclosed split would be pure guesswork, which we avoid, and the company's standing today is something we would confirm rather than take on faith.

Worth knowing: The deal above is public record from the episode. We never treat an on-air handshake as proof a product is still for sale today.
