- Affirmed
“The directors believe that preparing the financial statements on the going concern basis is appropriate due to the continued financial support of its intermediate parent company Global Freight Services (Hong Kong) Limited. The directors have received confirmation that Global Freight Services (Hong Kong) Limited intends to support the company for at least one year from the date of signing these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Towards the end of 2024, an agreement was reached with the landlord of the property leased by the company to exist from the headlease slightly earlier than per the lease agreement. An early settlement fee of £28,000 was agreed, roughly equating to the rent due up to the lease end date of 4 February 2025; early surrender was effective from 13 December 2024. At the same time, the company also terminated the sublease arrangement in relation to the same property.”
