From the administrators' statement
Creditors should note that, unless otherwise stated, this section of my Proposals has been prepared from information provided by the Director of the Company and not from my own personal knowledge as Administrator.
The Company was incorporated on 8 October 2015 by its directors, Mr Knauram Bashir Sheikh and Mrs Madiha Niazi. The Company was established to operate a restaurant under the German Doner Kebab ("GDK") franchise model. Following an initial investment of approximately £300,000, the Company opened its first restaurant in Croydon on 12 December 2016. This was one of the earliest GDK franchise operations in the United Kingdom.
During its early years of trading, the Company operated successfully and profitably. During the Covid-19 pandemic, although the restaurant was required to close to customers due to government restrictions, the Company utilised third-party home delivery platforms. This proved highly successful and weekly sales reached record levels during the lockdown periods.
