Knowing the value of Manuka honey after a friend took it recently for a stomach ulcer, I hate to say it, but these people sold off their company for peanuts.
They sold off the company at a ridiculously cheap price. They needed to come to a better bargain, a better business adviser or at least lower their prices so that more people could afford the Manuka honey.

I was in a store just yesterday looking at these and looking to buy at least 4 bottles.
Ah well.
