Cumana entered receivership in 1995, eventually emerging from receivership at the end of 1995 through the acquisition of the company's designs and brand name by Economatics,[1] who did not take on any of the company's liabilities or pre-receivership obligations with regard to orders or guarantees, although the new owner indicated a willingness to honour warranties. Five employees from Cumana joined Economatics in the transaction.[2] Cumana's electronics assembly facilities were acquired by Kenure Developments Ltd (KDL). Cumana was subsequently acquired from Economatics by educational hardware and software supplier Cannon Computing in late 1997.[3]
