We were savaged on BBC'S Dragons' Den for our chocolate business...now it's worth £1million & Prince Charles is a fan
Paul Maden and James Findlay's chocolate shop Cocoa Mountain got a dressing down on the hit BBC entrepreneurial show. The business was ridiculed by the Dragon's Den tycoons. But the savvy Scottish owners didn't give up and turned their business around. Their confectionery has proved a hit with famous faces, including Ian Botham, Ally McCoist, Juliet Stevenson and Prince Charles. They have an outlet in Dornoch in Sutherland and a factory in Perth. Cocoam Mountain had to temporarily shut in May due to problems attracting staff. They are looking for ten more people to fully open.
