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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events

Turnover increased by £2.0m to £12.8m and the company after-tax profit increased by £461,551 to £1,451,379. To manage and facilitate this growth the company changed strategy on the use of its labour pool and reorganised warehouse space to accommodate demand. The senior management team continued the strategy of continuous improvement with stringent commercial control, realising improvements across the business and a significant improved performance on historical pre-tax profits.”
- “The company is continuing it's plan for future growth during 2025 and beyond. The Directors have recognised the need for significant improvement in its management information systems. This upgrade will aid expansion and enhance reporting methods across all departments within the business. The company continued its carbon neutral status. Managing the carbon footprint and the environmental impact from business activities throughout the year.
