Twin Vee Inc. has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
Documents filed with the Southern District of Florida show that the company has listed about $1.7 million in liabilities. It owes debtors between $1 million to $10 million.
Twin Vee founder Roger Dunshee, who sold his majority share in the company in 2003 to Tampa-based investment firm Stonehenge Capital Co. for an undisclosed sum, evicted the company from his Fort Pierce, Florida, manufacturing facility last month.
SLC Commercial, Inc., a commercial real estate firm, is now soliciting offers for the 7.2-acre manufacturing plant at U.S. 1 and Edwards Road. The asking price on the 80,000-square-foot property is $4 million and lease rate is $4 per square foot, plus property taxes and insurance.
“It is my opinion that they made a lot of bad business decisions,” Dunshee said about Stonehenge Capital.
Former Twin Vee CEO Scott Noble could not be reached. The attorney handling the bankruptcy, Fort Lauderdale-based Jason Slatkin with the law offices of Slatkin & Reynolds, could not be reached.
At this writing, the Twin Vee Catamarans site was still live.
