## From the administrators' statement

The Company was incorporated on 4 July 2011. It is understood that the Company was one of a number of companies under the common control of the same directors, which collectively caught and supplied live, fresh and frozen seafood across the UK, Europe and into China. We are advised by the Company directors that in recent times the Company itself served as a vehicle that owned the fishing vessel named ‘Eliannah vessel’ currently docked in Fraserburgh, a specialist crabbing vessel. The Company owns a fishing licence, which we understand the Eliannah vessel utilised. The Company also owns a second smaller vessel called the ‘Aora’ which we understand was historically used by the Company as a guard vessel but which appears to have been docked in Hartlepool since 2019.

The Company formerly operated from Billingsgate Market, Trafalgar Way, London, however we understand that the Company ceased the majority of its operations some twelve months prior to our appointment.

As we were engaged by the Bank and had only one meeting with the directors prior to our appointment (more information provided below), we have established the following information from the Company’s filed, unaudited accounts in relation to the Company’s trading history:
