@@djspark191 firstly, 12 weeks is 3 months, not 6. Secondly it's 12 weeks shelf life. You're not buying it on the first day after production.

The reason the 'big players' in a space don't tend to make a product like this is that it competes with their own existing products that have a higher profit margin. It has nothing to do with consumer demand - and exactly why we need businesses like this thinking about things other than perpetual financial growth.

The reasons why fresh Indian sauces are not stocked up on super markets : People love making curries and to play with spices and herbs trying to create their very own recipe or recreate a traditional recipe but with a twist. If they feel like eating curry but don't feel like cooking, they order a take away from their favourite Indian place. They use jars of curry to store I'm the cupboard to use as emergency food to cook maybe for the kids after a hard day at work or just simply to use as quick meal. So shelflife is very important.
@@vibovitold you find fresh Italian sauces because although it's easy to make a simple tomato sauce for example, it's seen like a sort of emergency food when you don't know what to cook or simply too lazy to make a sauce. Again , making a curry it's like a pleasure for people.
@@vibovitold because the type of people who historically cook fresh are not cooking Indian food, they're cooking classic european food. Thankfully this has changed somewhat now.
@@redrobiin he said ‘can the percentage be negotiated’ like I never understand why ppl ask that it just lowers you chance. If he just gave him a straight away counter offer and said 25% by back he would of had a better chance of getting it
@B B I agree that’s the Worst way about going about negotiating and it Never works, ‘is it okay if we can do any lower’ without actually giving an actual counter offer. But the deal from Piers was actually a great deal and 30% is very reasonable.
13:30 Deal agreed and Vini offers her hand to Piers for a handshake.

To whoever said that Piers was the most spineless dragon who’s always out when everyone else is out, this video alone proves them wrong Rare indeed tho
I had an idea to have sauces available in homes via a tap. Basically there will be different pipes that have different types of sauces like bolognese and curry, and you pay per month like a water bill. And if you want extra spicy hot sauce or something you have to pay a premium. And after we conquer the domestic market we will take on military contracts etc
And his nostril is wet and glistening-I wonder if it dripped on the samples? Mmm, curry sauce with nostril juice and halitosis for that added personal touch…
I get major red flags from her. She gets emotional and comes across like she's trying to hide a petulant reaction when she doesn't get what she wants.

I agree that, most, IF not all, jarred sauces taste like **** and fresh is always the best. And especailly if it's authentic and made by authentic people. Now, if it's also sold at a decent price, comparable to higher end jars, i don't see why these kinds could not basically win them all.
Pataks do the Indian sauces and it needs to be a longer shelf life because once a tescos have waste they reduce orders and thus have a smaller display eventually leading to saying it’s not worth the shelf space which is so important to retail stores.

Looks a good product. She needs to speak with more enthusiasm, helps to push the product. She is really pretty too, both better than some people who enter the den
Tbh to me as an European most den entries come across as scam artist, bullshitting and piling empty promise on empty promise. These two looked not just super emotionally invested (the wife based the product on her own heritage and is clearly super distraught about the thought of giving it away), but super professional and capable as well. I'd invest in them based on that personal connection to the product alone, I know that they're going to pour every ounce of strength they've got into it. Unlike many boastful applicants who look like they could be out and in a different job and market any minute.
The fact that they own a bakery that is losing money and they can't be bothered to help it should have been a massive red flag, their only excuse as to why they didn't want to help it was "Because it's not me", that should be alarm bells ringing in any business person

That was very well put Piers.. #Time4Change
Duncan 'Is this made in Scotland otherwise i am ooooot'
They should do a chicken tikka masala...I believe that was invented in Glasgow Scotland.
As if the uk hasn’t got enough curry in a hurry food.
Vini is punching above his weight in more ways than one 👍🏻
That's arranged marriages for ya!
What makes you think she's out of his league?
Piers smashed her to confirm the deal
Hush your gums
@@BenjaminGoose Every woman is looking for an overweight, balding partner. That said, some people can look farther than the physical.
I snorted curry powder once. It nearly put me in a korma😁😁😁!!!
Go to the naughty corner and think about what you did!
The fact I laughed at this 😩
Brilliant play on words .. I did the same with Japanese dipping sauce
Classic imperialism. First mispronounce a word when anglicising it then come up with little jokes…
This was absolutely a play by Piers to buy majority equity when the business starts to fail and the other two want to bail.
Duncan said the right thing, 'Excuses' are not going to work
I agree that, most, IF not all, jarred sauces taste like **** and fresh is always the best. And especailly if it's authentic and made by authentic people. Now, if it's also sold at a decent price, comparable to higher end jars, i don't see why these kinds could not basically win them all.
Nice people, hope it worked out.
Pataks do the Indian sauces and it needs to be a longer shelf life because once a tescos have waste they reduce orders and thus have a smaller display eventually leading to saying it’s not worth the shelf space which is so important to retail stores.
I always liked Piers as a dragon
Thanks for your feedback. To take advantage

I'm pleased they got an investment. I'm just pleased it wasn't my money. - Peter Jones
3:04
Spices, notoriously a preservative
“Italian sauce” notoriously made fresh
You know it’s gonna be a great episode when Duncan starts out flipping everyone off! 😂
I'm in Australia but I'd definitely be happy buying fresh Indian than jars
i actually agree. those jar packed stuff can somehow feel disgusting
DO YOU EVER FEEL LIKE THE CAMERA MAN IS TRYING TO SHOW KELLY'S NOSE? WHY DOES HE ALWAYS HAVE TO BE ONE FOOT AWAY FROM HER NOSE FROM THE SIDE WHEN THEY DON'T DO IT TO ANYONE ELSE...
Deborah really that kid who said they can’t hear you during a speech 😂
Peter jones a guy who comes across as the guy who’s smug and knows it all.
Second time I ever seen Piers invest in something.
Really good investable people 🎉🎉🎉They clearly has a brand standing out with personality , so. I don't understand the "ego-trip" comment , by Jones
They bought their bakery during the GFC. But they said beforehand that it was at peak market. They contradicted themselves. Yikes!
Then said when they bought the bakery - it was winding down.
They said they bought it when the time was right then it did badly because of the recession.
You didn't get it. They bought it when things were going good and right after the financial crisis hit and business went from good to bad or even from bad to worse.
How is the business doing?
13:10 If I saw that reaction would I have said «Sorry guys, I changed my mind. I’m out»
I like how they were speaking to each other in indian as if he couldnt understand what they were saying lol
You're a dick. She's very pregnant!
@@Adrian-lc6jq Indian isn't a language, mate.
Looks a good product. She needs to speak with more enthusiasm, helps to push the product. She is really pretty too, both better than some people who enter the den
...
I remember that time a really good looking guy was on Dragon's Den and absolutely no one felt the need to point it out. Weird.
Tbh to me as an European most den entries come across as scam artist, bullshitting and piling empty promise on empty promise. These two looked not just super emotionally invested (the wife based the product on her own heritage and is clearly super distraught about the thought of giving it away), but super professional and capable as well. I'd invest in them based on that personal connection to the product alone, I know that they're going to pour every ounce of strength they've got into it. Unlike many boastful applicants who look like they could be out and in a different job and market any minute.
Product sounds like a good deal way better than those unauthentic curry sauces in the super market. As a brown man the girl is pretty average.
You know what, you could see Duncan playing T-bag from prison break and it wouldnt seem odd at all (minus the Scottish accent)
When Piers went of on one. Was so glad. Duncan deserved that!
He was on a BBC documentary about dating and looking for love within your religion and race..was actually really good
The fact that they own a bakery that is losing money and they can't be bothered to help it should have been a massive red flag, their only excuse as to why they didn't want to help it was "Because it's not me", that should be alarm bells ringing in any business person
Agree 100%.
I'm baffled they got an investment
Thats why you, and the people agreeing with are still poor
@@iownyou4669 Funny. You don't have any idea about my financial situation, nor me about yours. But after your comment I am pretty sure I am brighter than you.
A good example of a similar product is Annie’s pasta. And that’s a product I know and trust and love.
Jenny: It's great packaging, the taste is fantastic, and this product is going places. But I'm not, and therefor I'm out.
You can literally have any background story you want nobody researches it
They should have fitted a flow signal to the packaging.
Piers methodically knocks each dragon…love it
Omg i remember this guy, he was on the bbc show called dating the asian way
I thought I'd seen him somewhere before.
@@RZWN83 yeah mate i remember that documentary was pretty good
Isn't he married?
@@TaxingIsThieving yeah he's married now as that other documentary was made a long time ago
Dissolved on 16 March 2021.
Linney's investment went through after the show and he owned 30% of the business in return for his £50,000 injection of capital.
The company status is dissolved. Last Accounts Filed was on 2019-06-30
Dissolved!?
I read a couple of comments up there that said they were worth over 500k. I had hoped everything was going well for them. Bummer that they dissolved.
They did not dissolve. They continued to make more than 500,000, even going on into the millions.
Have any of you got reliable sources for this info?
@@billbertboyce324 Companies House. The OP is correct: Dissolved via voluntary strike-off 16 March 2021.
Furthermore, their website is down and all social media outlets have been inactive since 2017.
The bakery business has also been dissolved.
Duncan gets the last laugh.
How is 12 weeks a short shelf life? Plenty of convenience food people buy has less.
