From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 31 October 2018 as a manufacturer of kitchen, bedroom and bathroom furniture and traded from leasehold premises in Hull. The Company supplied a broad range of furniture products and established itself as a significant supplier to developers, contractors and distributors operating across the leisure, residential and commercial sectors.
Following incorporation, the Company invested significantly in plant & machinery and sought to grow its workforce and turnover. By 31 March 2021 its financial statements reported fixed assets in excess of £1.4m, but its net assets were only £44k.
On 11 May 2021 the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Summerbridge Holdings Limited and on 6 January 2022 the holding company was sold to Brand K Ltd, making the Company part of the Brand K group. The directors of the Company resigned on the change of ownership and Alex Norford was appointed as sole director. To support its operations and working capital requirements, the Company subsequently relied upon funding provided by connected entities in the Brand K group.
