Notice of Company Shutdown and Closure

 

To all employees and collaborators:

 

Due to the impact of the international market on downstream customers, resulting in unsold goods, a large amount of company funds have not been recovered, leading to severe cash flow shortages. The company has been struggling since the beginning of this year, seeking help and chasing payments from various sources, with little success. Ultimately, the brand owner and American agent have directly defaulted on payments, causing a cash flow crisis that the company cannot recover from. Due to financial difficulties, the company will cease operations and close from July 27, 2024. It is with great difficulty and regret that we announce the bankruptcy of the company.

 

Thank you to all our partners for their support over the years, and thank you to all our employees for their hard work day and night.

 

Next, the company will apply for bankruptcy to the court and establish a liquidation team to liquidate its assets. It will then cooperate with handling the aftermath work in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, and negotiate to resolve all matters.

 

Notice is hereby given.
