## From the administrators' statement

The Company was incorporated on 9 April 2014 and shortly after its formation, purchased the business and assets of an insolvent entity, Webster Machines Limited on 11 April 2014, via a pre-pack transaction.

The Company subsequently traded in the mining sector, acting as a repairer and supplier of plant and machinery to the mining industry. The Company primarily operated from leasehold premises in Chesterfield, with a further site in Doncaster.

Following the conclusion of a key contract, all of the Company’s 10 employees were made redundant in September 2018, prior to our appointment as administrators.
