Time to say Goodbye...

Hi there!

It's with deep sadness that I am announcing you that we are shutting Sincuru down.

I have been out of the UK for 4 months now, trying to renew my visa to get back in the UK and keep working with the team. It was supposed to be a two-week leave but things did not work out, courtesy of the Home Office. We then lost the commitment we had from some investors, then our agreement with suppliers. We could not serve our customers anymore.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to all of you who supported us from Day One.

OUR CUSTOMERS. Without you, all this would never exist. You jumped early into this adventure to crack wasted food and spent your hard earned money with us. You reinforced our purpose and commitment, you pushed us forward with your constructive feedbacks. Thank you so much!

Emma Williams and Neil Patel, who followed me on this journey, embracing all the challenges of a startup team. 
Mario Vassiliades, our world-class designer. If you need a designer by the way, you should check out his agency Series Eight.

Richard Pope, for your precious advice on building products.
Marc Zornes, for your precious advice on hacking the food supply chain. 

Bethnal Green Ventures: Paul, Glen, Melanie, Lily, Vicky, for investing in us so early and for the continuous support. You will forever remain the first investor that believed in me. To all the Summer 2014 Cohort, you rock!
At this moment, my case is waiting for the assignment of an Immigration Judge in the UK who will then settle it. Another 2 months (at the very least) that the company won't survive, so it's time for us to move on. 

I will be based in Paris, where I lived before moving to the UK, and I am cooking up something spicy to crack wasted food from here. Please stay in touch, on Twitter , LinkedIn, or feel free to mail me anytime.

Once more, thank you for your trust and support. I wish you very happy holidays with your friends and families. In London, or elsewhere! :-)
Cheers,

Steve D. AMARA
