    another one bites the dust

    From Barry Grant
    As of today, February 18, 2011 we are ceasing operations at our Dahlonega location and all subsidiary locations. Working with all of you has been the experience of a lifetime. I will value your support as friends, customers, vendors, and media contacts forever. The economic situation has put the company in the position of not being able to find working capital needed to continue operations and get a chapter 11 reorganization plan through the court. In addition to this, is that all of our equipment has been breaking down causing production delays and further hurting cash flow. Reluctantly now we must convert to chapter 7 liquidation after 26 years of business. The financial collapse has closed, or has caused severe restructuring of many companies in our industry. Many individuals have lost everything. We have even lost our home. This is the most humbling experience of my life, and I have no future plans at this point. Thank You for Your Many Years of Support.

    Clem,
    Can not tell you how sorry I am to hear of your bad luck - I did not come out too bad I just lost my job and took an early retirement. In my younger days I did lose a business, so I know that feeling. Wishing you and your's the best possible health, happiness and success in the future.

      I am very sorry to hear this. Of course I have seen you on the board here many times, but I never thought as to what you vocation was. Sorry though, doesn't pay the bills.

              It appears from reading over the years, that there was a lot of room for improvement in product manufacturing, quality control, and customer relations. A lot!
