Which Dragon's Den investor joined the British panel in 2015 after building businesses in fashion and property?

The story behind the answer

Touker Suleyman joined the British Dragon's Den panel in 2015 after building businesses connected with fashion, retail and property.

Suleyman is a British-Turkish entrepreneur and investor. He became particularly associated with the fashion industry through businesses including the clothing company Low Profile Group and the shirt brand Hawes & Curtis. His commercial career gave him experience in manufacturing, branding, wholesale and retail.

He joined Dragon's Den during the programme’s thirteenth series, adding a new investor to a panel that had already seen several changes since the original line-up. On the show, he has considered pitches across consumer products, food, fashion and technology.

His arrival is sometimes confused with that of later dragons such as Tej Lalvani or Steven Bartlett. The timeline separates them: Suleyman joined in 2015, Lalvani in 2017, and Bartlett in 2022.
