Getting your goods into a big supermarket can be transformational (5) What made you want to take part in Dragons? Den?

The landscaping company emerged from a timber supplies business, set up by the great-great-grandmother of entrepreneurs Henry and Philip Blake. We have a turnover of 600, 000 as of June 2015, a 110 per cent increase on the previous year. With our extended distribution, turnover for the next year will hit 1m. I started off by importing 3, 000 units of product, and now we import 80, 000 units every six weeks.

Jones snapped up the chance to invest in Dupsy Abiola’s intern portal that paired companies with youngsters looking for work.

Since then, Bare Naked Foods has gone from strength to strength and is now on the shelves of big-name grocery stores. Entrepreneurs are so eager to succeed that they sometimes have unrealistic expectations. I ALWAYS see entrepreneurs overvalue their business. It happens in the Den all the time!

Each serving (125g) is only 22kcal! They also contain Glucomannan, which supposedly encourages weight loss. Ross admits that he has always found weight loss ‘especially difficult’ due to his love of pasta and rice. He thought ‘there must be a low fat, low carbohydrate version of the foods that he craves and loves – especially pasta!’ I had the idea for a low-carbohydrate pasta and rice in 2010. I didn’t have the guts to start the business because I was scared of failing. After struggling with “always being on a diet”, I wanted to make it easier for people in a similar situation to lose weight without missing out on the food they like and love. There was a gap in the market and I thought I would be able to launch my new product and food brand.
