UPDATE
4/23/14:
Dear Model Power Customers,
After nearly 50 years serving the hobby industry,
our 3rd generation family business will be closing
effective
immediately to the public. We will be
reaching out to our clients over the next few weeks
to settle any demand needs that they may have.
In 2007, our banks began an aggressive deleveraging
process. They no longer approved of a profitable and
paying client such as ours,
which had been reliant
on inventory. This is why one of the industry's most
extensive lines, had begun to see much of its
products unavailable on the market. Now it will no
longer be seen at all.
During these past 7 years, we had made changes to
the business in order to accommodate and adjust to
the
changing nature of the business relationship
with our lenders. We had offered multiple solutions
to our
lenders in order to "fix" our situation, all
were rejected, came with different restrictions, or
offered too little too late.
In all our efforts, no
arrangements by our lenders would allow for Model
Power to arrive at a position in which we could get
back to fill our customer needs.
We would like to take the time to thank all of those
whom we have worked with the past 50 years. To our
customers
and competitors within the industry, we
thank you.
Sincerely,
The Model Power Family
