We are incredibly sad to announce that Karfu Limited will shortly cease trading.
As anyone close to the business knows, this is a depressing end to a needed start-up, especially after so many people have made herculean efforts for such a long period.
Karfu was tackling a hugely important problem for consumers and businesses in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis. Our solution was able to save people time and money while helping them make more suitable (and sustainable) vehicle decisions. That we had finally overcome all of the key and complex technical and operational challenges, convinced a stellar lineup of brand partners to join, and were ready to launch a new version of the platform imminently makes the closure even more disappointing.
To all of our investors, customers, suppliers, brand partners and supporters, we’re sorry that we couldn’t find a way through right at the last hurdle despite the best efforts of a huge number of people. We’ll never forget the kindness and empathy shown by so many whom we met along the way, many of whom went above and beyond to help us find a way through.
For any queries, please contact our CEO, Samuel Ellis.
For the final time, we would like to thank you for your support, and we can only apologise that we could not make the business a success.
