Going concern

Affirmed

“The directors therefore have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Therefore they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these annual financial statements.”

Significant events

• “On 1st April 2025, the company changed its name to align with its parent company and to reflect a broader vision, allowing it to expand beyond solely offering organic products.”
• “During the year, an exceptional provision was recognised in relation to potential commercial settlements, although the timing and exact value of any payments remain uncertain.”

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
