## From the administrators' statement

The Company was a national haulage business, offering general fleet, traction and contracted haulage solutions. The Company had customers across a number of sectors, including, but not limited to, printed media, retail and charity.

Prior to our appointment, the Company employed 86 members of staff; however, shortly following our appointment 79 members of staff were made redundant. We retained 7 members of staff to facilitate a managed wind-down of the business. The Joint Administrators have since made these retained employees redundant.
