From the administrators' statement
On 31 July 2024, HM Revenue & Customs issued a Winding up Petition for a total £1,009,734, which the Company was not in a position to pay. Other than sums due to Mr Barrett and associated companies, the Company does not have any significant debts payable to any other parties.
The director first sought the advice of Opus Restructuring LLP at a meeting on 27 February 2024. Further meetings were held on 12 August and 20 August 2024, the latter of which resulted in instructions being given to investigate the possibility of a sale of the business via an Administration, which would provide protection from creditor action whilst the business could be marketed.
The director was asked to advise of any marketing conducted by the Company prior to approaching Opus Restructuring LLP for advice and we were advised that none has been undertaken by the Company.
