## From the administrators' statement

The original business was run by Christopher Pick’s father, Leonard Pick,who operated asasole trader

supplying raw produce to fish and chip shops. After he passed away in 1995 the business was taken over by Christopher Pick (‘CP’) who also operated as a sole trader for two years before the company was incorporated in 1997. CP had been a Director of E. Pick & Son (Frozen Fish) Limited which went into Liquidation and as a result of which CP was disqualified to act as a Director and therefore was not formally appointed as Director of the company until 2003.

The company expanded from the original product lines and additionally offered an extensive range of frozen seafood, exotic fish and prawns. The company imported fish globally from accredited suppliers in USA, Europe, Asia and Africa offering customers supplies of raw products and mixed block fish or readymade fish to a certain specification. The company was also able to offer a haulier service which allowed next day delivery in the UK and most EU countries.
