From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated in March 2005 and provided transport, logistics and warehousing services across the UK. As at the date of our appointment, it operated from four strategically located sites within Northamptonshire, allowing it to service all parts of the UK. All sites were on leasehold arrangments. The Company’s head office was located in Kettering, with two further sites in Wellingborough and one site in Sywell.
The Company had two main sources of revenue; warehousing and transport logistics. In the recent months following a reduction in demand for warehousing, transport logistics had become the core service offering for the business.
Total warehouse capacity across the sites was c.70k pallets and c.500k square feet space in the UK. It operated a fleet of 74 trucks and 115 trailers, the majority of which were on leasehold arrangements.
