From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated in December 2009 by Daniel Shrimpton, Simon Thomas and Jacqueline Walter in order to complete a management buy out of the Bournemouth and Weymouth offices from City Centre Staff Bureau Ltd, a recruitment agency. They had worked together at City Centre Staff Bureau Ltd since 2008 and had all worked in recruitment since the late 90’s and became directors of the Company. The purchase was funded by funds loaned by Daniel Shrimpton and a bank loan via Lloyds Bank (secured by way of a debenture granting them a fixed and floating charge over the Company assets).
The Company initially focussed on temporary staff recruitment for the hospitality sector however, due to the seasonal nature of this industry, the Company diversified into other markets including the industrial sector. The Company predominantly operated in Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire.
The Company obtained further finance in June 2010 by way of an invoice finance facility with Lloyds Commercial Finance which assisted with cashflow. This was secured by way of a debenture granting them a fixed and floating charge over the Company assets).
