Going concern

Affirmed

“The war in Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict means that there are inherent uncertainties to the future profitability and cashflow generation of the company. During the year ended 31 December 2024, the company generated a profit of £472k (2023: £222k) and as of that date had net current liabilities of £355k (2023: £1,090k) and a cash balance of £201k (2023: £269k). The Company is reliant on a letter of support from its parent Luigi Lavazza SpA, to meet its obligations as they fall due. In light of the current uncertainties, the Company's parent undertaking Luigi Lavazza SpA has confirmed that they will support the Company in meeting its liabilities as and when they fall due, but only to the extent that money is not otherwise available to the Company to meet such liabilities. The Directors are satisfied that the ultimate parent undertaking has the ability to provide this support for 12 months from the date of these accounts, should it be required. The directors therefore consider it appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis when preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “War in Ukraine developed in February 2022, and the conflict has evolved over past two years. This has had significant impact on the world economy, with fluctuation in energy prices, challenges in the supply chain and product availability. Stabilising of its energy and material prices and implementation of mitigation actions has strengthen the performance in year and the Company continues to monitoring the impact throughout the year. The Company continues to seek potential alternative sourcing for its core product to ensure risks to production and its business is minimised. In addition, the Israel-Hamas conflict broke out in October 2023 with minimal impact to the supply chain in 2024 but the situation continues to be monitored.”
• “During the year the Company continued its investment into products, brands, processes and customer relationships as part of an ongoing strategy to reflect and adapt to anticipated changes in consumer attitudes and behaviour, as well as increase its focus on key areas of the marketplace.”

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
