He said it was too early to determine whether there would be funds available to pay them.
Mr Gibson said the company had several assets, including 8 hectares of land and associated buildings, machinery, timber stock in various stages of production, and was owed about $1.4 million.
Speaking to the Rotorua Daily Post this week, Mr Gibson said they had been going through the process of selling stock.

Mr Keepa said they would continue to work with workers seeking jobs and had also helped out by providing food vouchers.
