HORLAT Surviva Jak - Emergency survival Jacket/Blanket

Product Information

Ms Valentine said: “I was soaked to the skin as it had been raining for four hours solidly and on the downhill section of the mountain I was so cold that I could barely think and had gone past the point of shaking, I was in a really bad way.” The pair had previously received support from Venture Wales, having signed on to the Graduate Start-Up Support Programme funded by the Assembly Government, and also from The Prince’s Trust Enterprise Programme, support which they said was “invaluable”. At the time we weren’t that happy to be giving away that large a chunk of the company, but we have been very happy with how we all work together so far and we are very confident we will all make money.”

Duncan Bannatyne has noticed that by the figures Alex provided, the company will be worth less in three years' time than it is now. We work hard to minimise our negative impact on the environment, reusing our waste and aiming to become a zero to landfill company.Surviva is also planning to launch a host of other products related to outdoor activities this year, with the investment from Ms Meaden. Mr Lewis added: “We decided to develop a product that could warm someone up in an emergency but that would also enable the wearer to move around and perform other tasks, like riding a bike or pitching a tent.

Letitia Valentine and Alex Lewis from Swansea faced the formidable business gurus on the TV show on Monday. In return, the dragon has taken a 45% stake in the business after the pair were subjected to a gruelling 90-minute grilling from Ms Meaden and the four other dragons – with Theo Paphitis and Duncan Bannatyne describing their pitch as the “worst they had ever heard.” You are clearly passionate about your product but you are completely dysfunctional when it comes to understanding how to launch a business. Clearly the two are not going to risk arguing any further and they readily accept her offer. The deal done in the Den: The pair came up with Surviva Jak after Letitia developed hypothermia while cycling in the Brecon Beacons.The Prince’s Trust helped the pair with a low-interest loan as well as advising the duo during the start-up phase of the company. “We are so thankful for all the help and advice we have received from The Trust. The assistance we had got the ball rolling,” said Ms Valentine. Ms Valentine described the grilling as “the most terrifying experience” of her life that left her on the verge of tears. Alex mentions that they're in talks with a leading retailer and that if they can introudce more products and have a line they can get into stores.

She is very much hands on and when she made her offer for 45% of the company she said that she needed the extra 10% so she could take more of a hands-on approach – she’s going to be very much involved.

Peter, is disappointed. The product is good but Alex and Letitia haven't sold it well - whether to retailers or in the Den. He too is out. The product is already available at outdoors and camping equipment retailers across the UK and online at survivawear.com. Despite a tough presentation, the pair persuaded one of the Dragons, Deborah Meaden, to pledge a 45% stake in the business - an offer they had few qualms in accepting. THE Dragons’ Den is notorious for melting the will of even the most confident of potential slayers, and the Swansea duo were no different.

Theo Paphitis is also disappointed at their suspect statistics and he finds it absurd that they haven't even managed to speak to anyone in the buying departments of the stores they've approached. With camera crews and the studio audience, there's actually about 50 people in there, all listening to your presentation. We were both excited and terrified before we went on and it was a very tough experience to go through. I was very upset because Theo and Duncan in particular were very harsh with their comments – they were so mean to us. Deborah actually stepped in and said that they were taking it too far,” Ms Valentine said. There were a couple of errors with the pitch but they said that it was the worst pitch they have ever seen. So for the majority of the pitch I didn’t think that we were going to get the investment. If you had told me then that we would have built a company based on the idea I wouldn’t have believed you. People kept telling us we should go on Dragons’ Den, so we thought why not give it a go?”At SURVIVA we aim to build good working relationships with our customers allowing us to modify and adapt our products to meet their specific needs.

Certainly their business has problems but there is the germ of a good idea here.
