From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 22 October 2014 and, more recently, traded from leasehold premises at Unit 20 Saffron Way, Leicester LE2 6UP. The Company traded as a specialised signage company, which built and installed signs predominantly for corporate customers.
The Company employed, at its peak, 20 people and several sub-contractors to deal with the manufacturing and installation of the signs. More recently, this had reduced to five employees and one sub-contractor.
On 15 June 2018, one of the Company's suppliers, Star Platforms Limited, issued a petition for the compulsory winding up of the Company, with a hearing scheduled for 27 June 2018. Having regard the Company's financial position at the time and inability to settle the amounts claimed, the director contact Leonard Curtis for advice.
