- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's 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 original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “During the financial year the company leased land with a view to growing a proportion of the products traded, providing the company with greater insight into the planting, growing and harvesting of produce. Additionally, the company leased pack house space while purchasing and installing a wash and grading line together with an automated packing line. Both of these operations add value and greater control.”
- “The directors of the company are monitoring the US tariff changes which are being introduced by the US government, but moreover the expected retaliatory UK / EU tariff changes on US imports. UK/EU tariffs will lead to produce cost increases. These produce cost increases will be passed where possible and absorbed where the market price has reached its ceiling.”

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
