VanMoof e-bikes is bankrupt – The Verge

Dear all,

Over the final weeks Ties and I’ve tried to discover a future for VanMoof. We’re extraordinarily sorry to need to report that regardless of our greatest efforts we didn’t succeed and we’ve got needed to file for chapter. The directors, who are actually the trustees, will clarify beneath what this implies for you, however we need to take a really temporary second to thanks all from the underside of our hearts.

We began VanMoof 14 years in the past with a loopy thought to vary the world. The solely purpose that we had been capable of make a dent is due to you: the a whole lot of devoted and constant people who have helped us with our mission to vary cities for the higher. We’re grateful to each one in every of you and are sorry that we won’t be able to see this mission by collectively.

We really feel unhappiness, however most of all we really feel an immense sense of delight for what we’ve got achieved collectively. For us it’s been the honour of a lifetime and though the present iteration of VanMoof ends right this moment and we don’t but know what the longer term holds, I’m assured that the VanMoof alumni will proceed to be a drive for good.

With the kindest of regards,

Taco and Ties Carlier
