Founder Catherine and Chris Baldrey-Chourio stepped onto the carpet in Season 15, Episode 6 in the episode that aired 1 October 2017. Nana's Manners, the children's cutlery, pitched in the Kids & Education category, one of 82 kids & education businesses to brave the Den across all 22 seasons.

Touker Suleyman made the deal at £50,000 for 30% equity. That priced the company at £167K, a haircut from the £250K the founders walked in asking for, which is how negotiations in the Den usually go.
