Significant events

• “Following the completion of the MBO in October 2024 the new strategy has been to continually invest in equipment and people in order to grow the business. We are extremely happy with 2025 in that we have been able to achieve such exceptional growth in both divisions in our first full year post MBO.”
• “The markets in which both divisions operate are highly competitive, with clients demands for excellent service at competitive prices at the very heart of the industry. This is more of a return to type and is in stark contrast to the immediate post Covid pandemic years where demand outstripped supply, and trucks, trailers and driver availability were at a premium consequently driving up prices.”
• “Whilst 2025 has seen significant growth, we remain committed to growing in an environmentally conscious and responsible way. We have invested further in our fleet, with the acqu sition of newer, environmentally friendly trucks with the latest engine technology to date and continue to use fuel from a globally responsible provider whilst also participating actively in their carbon offsetting program.”
• “Despite being over four years since the UK formally left the EU concerns continue to linger regarding Brexit and the lack of clarity around its long-term effect on the live events logistics sector.”
• “The Russia/Ukraine conflict that began in February 2022 remains ongoing, there have been many times in the intervening years that a peaceful resolution has seemed near... Recent escalations at the end of 2025 and early 2026 in the Middle East have added to this volatility and we are unquestionably entering a period of heightened global instability.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
