The Company was incorporated on 6 December 1994 by Chris Stockton, who was the sole director of the Company. The Company was initially incorporated to hire marquees and operate outside bars for public events.

The Company previously owned a premises situated at Unit 1, Lightwood Green, Overton, Wrexham, LL13 OHU. Clydesdale Bank Pic (‘Clydesdale”) hold a legal charge over this property; however, the Joint Administrator are aware that the property has recently been sold and the director has confirmed that Clydesdale have been repaid in full and therefore this charge should now be marked as satisfied.

The Company employed 31 drivers and 7 members of staff across various roles, including management, logistics and general administration, including the director.
