12337240 Canada Inc. c.o.b. Minfu Kitchen Cabinets

12337240 Canada Inc. c.o.b. Minfu Kitchen Cabinets, based out of Newmarket, Ontario, filed an assignment in bankruptcy on July 27, listing approximately $312,000 in liabilities. The company manufactured custom cabinet products for residential and commercial projects and provided general renovation services for kitchens. The business was largely dependent on imports from China, and shipping delays along with the substantial increase in shipping costs during and after the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the viability of the business. In addition, a significant supplier based in China had COVID-19 restrictions placed on it by the government, resulting in the supplier ceasing operations, further aggravating the procurement issues. Goldhar & Associates is the bankruptcy trustee.
