- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “2024 has been a relatively successful year, as the company continues to concentrate its efforts on maintaining its market share within the industry.”
- “The directors are highly satisfied with the performance for the year, especially bearing in mind the continued struggles with distribution as a result of the United Kingdom's departure from the European Union. The directors sought appropriate logistics partners and advise on the customs rules to mitigate these struggles.”
- “In 2025, the company will continue to concentrate its efforts on maintaining market share and streamlining position within the industry, whilst providing high level of service to its existing clients in the UK and overseas markets.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
