From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated in 2010 and supplied food and catering services to the hospitality sector including sporting events and hotels. The Company had recently invested heavily in new modem catering facilities at leasehold premises in Chorley, Lancashire.
As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, and due to the fact that the events industry has been one of the worst effected industries, the business of the Company declined significantly in a short period of time. Due to a large number of sporting events being cancelled {including horse racing events), the suspension of the football
