Significant events
- “The continuing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and between Israel and Palestine/Gaza caused less disruption than in prior years as, where necessary, alternative supply and routes have been established.”
- “The return of the Republican party in the U.S. and a second term for Donald Trump as president had an immediate effect on global markets, with the dollar initially strengthening against sterling and the euro.”
- “On April 2, 2025, the U.S. administration implemented a 10% "reciprocal" tariff on nearly all imports, including those from the UK, effective April 5.”
- “The Eagle Plastics Limited (02915093) acquisition has now been fully integrated within Plastribution, fulfilling the objective of aligning the businesses and sharing processes and systems.”

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
