Care/of, a company offering personalized subscription vitamin packs, says it will be canceling all subscriptions as of Monday, June 17 and will no longer be accepting new orders.

一家提供个性化维生素包订阅服务的公司Care/of表示,将于6月17日星期一取消所有订阅,不再接受新订单。

The news doesn’t come completely out of the blue, as Care/of had previously disclosed in a New York Department of Labor filing that it planned to lay off all 143 employees by July 3 due to a “funding loss.” Now the company is being more specific and definitive about the closure, with a post yesterday on Instagram thanking customers and saying, “We unfortunately no longer have funding to operate in the way we have been.”.

这条消息并非完全出乎意料,因为Care/of之前在纽约劳工部的一份文件中透露,由于“资金损失”,它计划在7月3日前解雇所有143名员工。现在,该公司正在对关闭事件进行更具体和明确的说明,昨天在Instagram上发布了一条帖子,感谢客户,并表示“不幸的是,我们不再有资金以我们以前的方式运营了。”。

The post doesn’t completely close the door on a revival, claiming, “We are actively exploring options for the brand but do not have anything definitive to communicate at this time. We hope to be in a place to share more soon.”

该帖子并没有完全关闭复兴的大门,声称“我们正在积极探索该品牌的选择,但目前还没有任何明确的信息可以传达。我们希望很快能在一个地方分享。”

Founded in 2016 by Craig Elbert and Akash Shah, Care/of asked customers to fill out a quiz about their lifestyle and values, which it used to recommend a personalized mix of vitamins and supplements. Its investors included Juxtapose, Goodwater Capital, Tusk Venture Partners, Bullish, and RRE Ventures..

Care/of于2016年由克雷格·埃尔伯特(CraigElbert)和阿卡什·沙阿(Akash Shah)创立,它要求客户填写一份关于他们的生活方式和价值观的测验,并用它来推荐个性化的维生素和补充剂组合。其投资者包括Juxtapose、Goodwater Capital、Tusk Venture Partners、Bullish和RRE Ventures。。

Pharmaceutical giant Bayer acquired a majority stake in Care/of in 2020. Earlier this month, Bayer’s director of strategic communications Christin Miller told NutraIngredients that “ceasing further investment in Care/of will allow Bayer to better invest in future innovations at help people manage their personalize health.”.

制药巨头拜耳于2020年收购了Care/of的多数股权。本月早些时候,拜耳战略传播总监克里斯汀·米勒(ChristinMiller)告诉NutraIngredients,“停止对护理/of的进一步投资将使拜耳能够更好地投资于未来的创新,帮助人们管理个性化健康。”。
