A former JFS pupil who appeared on Dragons’ Den has walked away from a lucrative deal with three of the business tycoons, the JC can reveal.
Jonny Plein, 26, became one of the most successful contestants ever to appear on the long-running series after his Pouch online shopping voucher business won offers from all five judges last week.
But while the televised episode showed Mr Plein and his business partner Ben Corrigan agreeing a deal with three of the Dragons - Touker Suleyman, Tej Lalvani and Jenny Campbell - in return for an 18 per cent share of the business and a £75,000 investment, when the cameras switched off they were unable to conclude the deal.
A source confirmed to the JC: “The Pouch boys wanted written contracts from the three Dragons confirming they would put in an agreed amount of time, and bring other brands into their business.
