## From the administrators' statement

The Company was incorporated on 18 July 2008 by Jorrit Jorritsma and Nicky Forbes-Jorritsma for the purpose of building a sustainable and ethical lifestyle brand called Millican, around a small collection of travel bags and accessories made from 100% organic cotton canvas.

The Company was launched with the help from the three local shareholders and a £50,000 loan from the National Westminster Bank Plc, which was paid off in full within term. In subsequent years, the Company raised further and significant equity investment / loans to assist with expanding the team and the implementation of a new integrated order processing, stock management and accounting IT systems.

In 2014, the Company moved into its first leasehold office near Keswick. In 2017, the Company rented a second unit on the same estate and in 2019, the team brought together in a new purpose-built leasehold office and showroom building on the same estate.
