Another Crowdcube success story melts away as Fantoo goes into administration

Image result for unfinished


Reasons given for this failure included the fact that the product Fantoo were selling was never completed. Bridging that gap!


Jordan Fantoo, the founder talked a great game. We had this down as a very long shot - we simply didnt believe him. He was how do you say....full of it. Like this from 2014 Start Ups - 


Despite some interest from Dell in 2016 - possibly exaggerated - new funding could not be found. The admin boys are apparently talking to a buyer. Wonder who?

Total equity invested £2.2m. Angels Den were also involved at some stage.

  1. Interesting that David Kirk , the administrator of KH1 Limited authorised by ICAEW has confirmed that the Company is unable to provide a income statement for the last 3 years and that the company confirms that no management accounts or other accounting information has been prepared. Isn't there an obligation for directors to keep proper accounting records ? I wonder if this will be swept under the carpet or action taken against the 3 directors, the accountant being the sister of the founder and a director as well.
    Hard to understand how the administrator can get to 23k of fees with no records to look at ..
