From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 15 June 2009 and operated as a mixed media publishing business which specialised in the production of digital content and print platforms, primarily for the education and property sectors.
Trading from centrally located leasehold premises in Bristol, the Company established several market-leading print and online publications and had a reliable customer base.
The Company made a profit of some £28k for the financial year ended March 2019 but then suffered a trading loss of £42k in the following year due to significant increases in respect of its operating costs.
