When I first looked at the news coming across my desk, I almost spit out my coffee (sorry mushroom coffee people, it was Starbucks).
I actually thought the news was for Organo Gold shutting down in the U.S. and Canada.
But don’t worry my OG friends. Your company is not shutting down.
However, one of your competitors, Gano Excel is no longer accepting orders in the U.S. or Canada.
According to our friend, Ted Nuyten at BusinessForHome, rumor has it that Gano Excel CEO Joven Cabasag has grabbed the company data base with plans to launch a new company called Gano Life.
We will be sure to grab a cup of coffee and watch this closely.
According to Ted, over 30,000 reps might be affected by the closure.
LOL. “Sorry Mushroom coffee people”. Let’s see where Gano Life goes.
I mean no disrespect to mushroom coffee…just having a little fun. = )
Interesting to see how Gano Life will spin there products to compete with Organo Gold. There would have to be several differentiators between them and OG to compete as another organic gourmet coffee.
Great post Ty. May have to look into Gano Life. Do you know when the expected roll out date is for Gano Life? Very interested in learning more.
Apparently, Gano Excel is now suing gano life CEO for misusing Gano Excel’s confidential information. Let see how that goes…
Interesting, thanks for the update. And speaking of Starbucks, the lack-of-caffeine headache I feel coming on means I’m due for a run 😉
I checked out Gano; glad I didn’t check in……thanks for info
Wow, this is news to me. Up until December I have been getting people pitching me on this one. Sorry to see the people who are in this business getting hurt by this.
Woow – Is This True – Gano Excel Not Organo Gold Shutting Doors In The U.S
