Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- Saffery LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“At the time of approving the financial statements, 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.”
Significant events
- “The 2024-2025 result was positive considering the challenges we have seen in the Sector. Hardwood imports into the UK in 2025 are slightly lower than in 2024. Imports of solid wood, which includes Hardwood, fell by 3.8% in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Turnover year on year has increased which has been positive and in line with the strategy adopted and gross profit continues to be strong, albeit the pressure on retaining margin remains a focal point. ...Our international division is gaining momentum and is a positive addition to the UK operations. Stock levels remain in line with anticipating sales; however, the business has sufficient resources to increase when the Timber Sector improves.”
- “The company remains a market leader in Hardwoods and Clear Grade Softwoods... The key objectives for 2025-2026 continues to be focused on increasing market share in our core operations whilst exploring further product opportunities. The approach to the international trade has been successful as we continue to see growth in global activities...”
- “The company has built up the reputation of being an excellent payer to all suppliers which has enabled us to source premium products at very competitive prices.”

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
