The entrepreneur behind a Gravesend-based inflatable pub company is second to pitch on Dragons’ Den tonight.

Rich Martin launched The Air of the Dog during Covid – so his dad could enjoy a beer during lockdown – and saw the pop-up offer really take off.

He now has 13 themed pubs.

Rich says he has hosted parties for the likes of reality TV star Dani Dyer and told Kent Online that he has teamed up with a brewer in Greenhithe to provide his own beer.

He will be asking for £50,000 for a 10% stake in his business.
