From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 15 July 2002 and commenced trade shortly thereafter. The Company initially operated as a broker in the sale of steel products but has more recently transitioned to the wholesale supply of such products. Although the Company maintained a facility for the storage of goods, its operations primarily involved arranging for products to be delivered directly to customers by the relevant supplier.
Following the completion of a pre-packaged sale of the Company’s business and assets on 30 January 2026, the Joint Administrators prepared and issued an Initial Letter to Creditors on 5 February 2026 providing further information pursuant to Statement of Insolvency Practice (“SIP”) 16. This letter is attached as Appendix L of this report.
The Joint Administrators draw your attention to Section two of the SIP16 Letter, which provides a full explanation of the events leading up to Administration, the initial introduction and the Joint Administrators’ involvement. We do not believe that there are any significant personal or professional relationships between the Company or its Director and Leonard Curtis (“LC”), and we confirm that we carried out the appropriate conflict review prior to accepting the appointment.
