Look for Bare Naked Foods on AmazonFull story →Ross Mendham brought a gluten-free, low-carb alternative to pasta and noodles, made from the Asian konjac plant, into series 11, episode 1.
The paperwork and the storefront both point the same way: this one is still trading.
Giving up half the company for the credibility
Mendham wanted £60,000 for a steep 50% of the business, facing a full panel that included Bannatyne, Hoppen, Meaden and Linney alongside Jones, and Peter Jones ended up funding the full amount. Handing over half a company is a lot to bet, but it bought Mendham both the cash and the retail credibility needed to get the product properly onto shelves.
That backing led to new lines launching under the Barenaked name, including a spaghetti version and a protein noodle, both built on the same sugar-free, gluten-free, low-carb formula that won the original deal.
What the filing history confirms
The registrar marks the company active, with its latest accounts covering the period to June 2025 and a further filing expected by July 2026, exactly the kind of paperwork trail a genuinely functioning company leaves behind.
Its own site and a network of UK stockists both remain live, selling the noodle and rice alternatives to shoppers watching their carbohydrate intake rather than treating the range as a novelty tied to one television appearance.
Still leaning on the Den connection
Products still carry the line "as seen on BBC Dragons' Den" in their marketing, which for a brand well over a decade past broadcast suggests the founders still see the appearance as a selling point worth keeping rather than something to quietly drop.
Between the filings, the working checkout, and the active stockist list, this is about as clear a survival signal as a small food brand can offer.
