## From the administrators' statement

Radium Automotive Services Plc (formerly Johnsonvellen Plc and Jet Total Vehicles Solutions Plc) was incorporated on 15 November 1999 and traded from a 34 acre leasehold site in Long Marston near Stratford upon Avon as well as an adjacent 12 acre storage compound Pnor to Administration the Company had employed 169 people

The Company’s customers were primarily vehicle manufacturers and fleet management companies The Company’s principal services were the refurbishment of former lease vehicles and associated storage and ancillary services

In the months preceding insolvency, the Company experienced a fall in sales This decrease was principally due to a reduction in the volume and mux of car refurbishments and the loss of a key customer As a consequence, the business became loss making and experienced significant cash flow difficulties
