Dear Lemur Camper Enthusiasts
We regret to announce that Lemur Camper has ceased operations.
We had a promising start to the season through February and March 2025, with a particularly exciting response at and after an outdoor show in Vancouver March 1st and 2nd. However, with the announcement of tariffs in early April, motivated buyers pulled out citing uncertain economic times requiring them to hold off indefinitely on large ticket purchases.
Since early April visits to our shop page plummeted from 30-50 per day to 1-3 a day, and have flatlined since. This dramatic change has happened during what is usually the peak purchasing period of the camper/rv season.
As a small business we evaluated whether conditions are likely to change in the short to medium term and determined that the cause of the decline in consumer sentiment would not change in that timeframe. Hence our decision to cease operations.
Lemur Camper is a thoughtfully designed product that is unique in the marketplace. We hope to find a buyer for the intellectual property (patents, prototype, etc.) who might be interested in moving the Lemur Camper forward when the market improves.
Thank you for your interest and support.
Farewell and Happy Camping!
Andrew Duthie
