Not sure how true this is but l was told in a kinda " man in a pub( Co OP shop actually )" conversation that the company decided to farm out assets . The biggest asset being the patent or licence for the Kania which was only released when the price was right.* *Edited ; it looks like they actually sat on the patent themselves . As l say , this may well not be exactly true but with the fur trade failing lt would be a good guess that the words " financial poo" might be relevant. Someone like Phil or OTC probably has a better idea. Edited October 1 by comanche Quote Link to post

WWW.KANIA.NET Looking at that price, doubt anyone is gonna bother importing any more of those. Good squirrel trap, but plenty more options out there. 1 Quote Link to post
comanche 2,882 Posted September 30 Report Share Posted September 30 So a company that's supposedly been a leader in the fur and trapping business for 25 years suddenly needs to raise £160,000 . And they need it quick ,and upfront. ???? 1 Quote Link to post
comanche 2,882 Posted October 1 Report Share Posted October 1 A cynic might suggest that by offering the unmade traps at a discount and only selling in bulk Kania could knock up a fairly heathy looking set of figures . They wouldn't have to produce a single trap . Just sell the pattern ,tooling and glowing advance-order book to to some keen innocent. Quote Link to post
