April presented us with significant challenges as we faced unforeseen disruptions in our manufacturing process and planning related to trade policy. These hurdles tested our resilience and prompted us to reevaluate all aspects of our business in order to maintain excellence for our customers.
We have made pivotal decisions to ensure agility and sustainability.
Recalibrating our manufacturing strategy: We’re prioritizing the transfer of our operations and new production of our flagship Vestaboard to meet current demand and continue our commitment to delivering our original beautiful and enduring product. Our significant changes to how and where we manufacture are not easy, but we are confident in our ability to navigate them. Our next shipment is Fall 2025.
Moving Vestaboard White production to 2026: Given the unique manufacturing requirements of Vestaboard White and delicate changes we want to see occur as part of the product, we will bring up production for Vestaboard White early in 2026 for delivery to customers in Spring 2026. This was the most difficult decision, but it allows us to focus resources effectively and maintain our standards of excellence.
Diversifying our product portfolio: Recognizing the strong interest from a wide audience for a more accessible Vestaboard, we’re introducing a new product on Thursday, May 22nd. This new model benefits from being manufactured using near identical components to our flagship and we expect it to give our business stronger operating leverage over the next two years.
While these decisions come with their own set of challenges, they are made with a vision for a stronger, more nimble Vestaboard. We remain optimistic about the path ahead and we are deeply grateful for our customers’ support and understanding.
