Touker Suleyman joined the investment panel of the British television programme Dragons' Den in 2015 after building a career in fashion retail.
Suleyman is a British-Turkish Cypriot entrepreneur and investor. His business interests have included fashion manufacturing, clothing brands and retail, giving him specialist knowledge of product development, sourcing and distribution.
He joined Dragons' Den for its thirteenth series, becoming part of a later generation of investors rather than the original panel. His appearances often reflect his experience in consumer products and fashion businesses, areas where manufacturing margins and retail placement are central concerns.
The investor is sometimes confused with other later dragons because the BBC has refreshed the panel several times. Touker Suleyman is the fashion-retail entrepreneur associated with the 2015 arrival.
