Venturing into the Dragons’ Den in July this year proved to be a canny business decision from Peter Harrison and Wesley Downham, who received offers from all five Dragons and left with £100,000 from Peter Jones and Theo Paphitis. The business was already established though, providing services ranging from door security to CCTV installation. With over 3,000 clients, including the NHS, Revolution Vodka Bars, local councils and the Subway franchises, turnover is expected to top £5m next year. The business is growing both organically and through acquisitions.
