Made.com has stopped taking new orders : Dodgy Company
[Online furniture retailer Made.com has
stopped taking new orders after talks to find a buyer failed, pushing the firm towards collapsing. Bosses warned if further funding could not be raised before its cash reserves ran out, it would take "appropriate steps to preserve value for creditors". The firm's share price plummeted after it revealed rescue talks with potential buyers had been terminated on Tuesday. The company said its decision to halt orders was "under review". It added "a further announcement will be made as appropriate". The share price of the company, which employed around 700 staff at the end of last year, closed on Tuesday at just 0.5p a share, after dropping by more than 90%. Made.com, which was launched in 2011 with £2.5m in funding, was co-founded by Ning Li and Brent Hoberman, best-known for starting Lastminute.com Chloe Macintosh and Julien Callède also helped start the business.] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brent_Hoberman One Backer is South African. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-63403363 |
Why do they chose such ridiculous company names .. like Made.com !?
There’s one called Very .. On a side note the music industry also has odd sounding groups .. I don’t like daft group names either ! Elbow is possibly the most annoying Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
Made com stopped tradding.
In 10 days or less a Admin will take over. They can not afford to refund any standing orders as they are waiting for Admin to take full control. They did well during Covid-19 Delivering Furniture and the shares went up. |
Ex-Made boss says offer to save company ‘rebuffed’
[The founder and former boss of Made.com has said his offer to buy the furniture business before it falls into administration has been rejected. The online retailer is set to enter administration this week with the expected loss of some 500 jobs. Ning Li said he had offered to buy Made with his own cash, saving 100 jobs, but this "wasn't accepted". Instead, administrators from PwC are likely to be appointed and a sale of the Made.com brand name announced.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-63542386 |
