## From the administrators' statement

2.1 The business was established as Cesol Tiles Limited, which started many years ago importing tiles from Portugal and distributing them. Cesol Tile & Stone Limited was incorporated in 2007 and the principal activity of the company was the retail sale of tiles, and traded from leasehold premises at 11 Bushell Business Centre, Hithercroft Road, Wallingford, Oxfordshire, OX10 9DD.

2.2. The director advises that the company took over the business of Cesol Tiles Limited and concentrated primarily on retail. The business was profitable at first although during the last 10 years retail generally has changed considerably with the internet becoming the main way of selling, even for tiles.

2.3 The company found it difficult to compete with online stores and customers would come in to the showroom to look at the products and then proceed to buy online, with suppliers competing directly against the company at extremely competitive prices through their websites.
