Kanban

Have they gone bankrupt ? and, if so, does that include their new shop "Crafted by you " ?

Looks like they've gone into administration - this is on the home page of their website:


"Kanban Crafts Limited (“the Company”) was placed in to Administration on 18th March 2013, with Keith Marshall and Willie Duncan
of RSM Tenon, 2 Wellington Place, Leeds, LS1 4AP, being appointed Joint Administrators.

The business and affairs of the Company are being managed by its Administrators, who act as agents without personal liability.

The Joint Administrators are in discussions with a number of interested parties in respect of the business and assets,
although at this stage it remains uncertain as to whether a sale will be successful.


Although we can no longer take orders over the Crafted By You website, you can still of course visit the Crafted By You shop in Shipley
and fill up with Kanban products at fantastic savings while stocks last."


Hope that helps

Forgot to post about Kanban. When I was in Crab Apple's shop last week or it might have been the week before - unless I write it down, I forget what I've done! - was told that they had gone bust ...

I wonder if it was losing the QVC connection when Dawn Bibby left that finished them off.

they were showcasing their stuff on C& C though up until a couple of weeks ago - I feel sure ?

Yeah, would be interesting to know which is the most lucrative channel for a craft company to be on, lol

C&C shift far more stuff than Le Q.

Oh ok, that's interesting, I didn't really have any idea which it would be
