Stormhoek, famous for their unconventional marketing via blogging (not to mention an easy drinking, modern style Pinotage) have collapsed "into administration" reports UK's Off Licence News after cash-flow problems.
The administrator is said to be looking for a buyer for the company as a going concern but all ten off the staff, including founder Nick Dymoke-Marr, failed to get Christmas pay cheques and were handed redundancy notices this week.
A truly sad setback for such an innovative business. I wish all the staff the best for 2008.
wow - that is interesting news indeed. i hope everything sorts itself out.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peter - all the best for 2008 to you too and thanks for your support, best Catherine
