- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. The auditors concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate and they have not identified any material uncertainties.”
Significant events
- “The acquisitions of Gatelands Supplies Limited and Premier East Limited, whose operations were subsequently integrated into JJ Food Service Limited, enabled the company to expand its product range, particularly within the Asian market segment. These acquisitions are expected to drive future growth and strengthen our market position in the wholesale food and beverage industry.”
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. 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
