OFFICIAL STATEMENT👩🏼⚖️
We would like to address the recent incident involving one of our clients and the concerns surrounding our business.
CClothing by Claud is currently dealing with an unpaid transaction amounting to more than ₱600,000 involving a client whom we previously trusted and accommodated in good faith. We have complete records and documentation of the transactions, communications, deliveries, payments, and the outstanding amount.
This situation has caused our business significant financial and emotional distress. As a small business, an amount of this magnitude is not something we can simply absorb or disregard. It represents our hard-earned money, working capital, and the trust of the clients and suppliers who have supported us throughout the years.
We also want to sincerely explain why we have experienced lapses and delays recently, including boxes from Bangkok that have not yet been shipped to Manila and why we can't have our Batch 38 as of the moment.
The funds that were supposed to support our ongoing operations and logistics have been significantly compromised because of this unpaid transaction. As a result, our cash flow has been severely affected, which has unfortunately caused delays in shipping, processing, and other aspects of our operations.
We understand the frustration and disappointment of those who are waiting for their orders, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. We are not making excuses—we simply want our clients to understand the situation we are currently facing and why we have struggled to keep up with our normal operations.
Despite everything, we are doing our best to find ways to move forward, fulfill our remaining obligations, and recover from this setback.
We initially chose to handle this matter privately and professionally, out of respect for the person involved and in the hope that the issue could still be resolved amicably. However, given the amount involved and the impact it has had on our business, we are now taking the appropriate steps to protect our business and recover what is rightfully ours.
We ask for your patience, understanding, and continued trust as we work through this difficult situation.
To our loyal clients, suppliers, friends, and supporters who continue to stand by CClothing by Claud, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We deeply appreciate your patience and understanding during this challenging time.
We will continue to stand by the facts, our records, and the proper process.
