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

Audit & accounting basis

Accounting basis: FRS 102
Reporting scope: Standalone (parent only)
Auditor: Bishop Fleming Audit Limited
Audit opinion: Unqualified (clean)
Going concern: Affirmed
“The directors have concluded that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. The company is a net asset position of £1,774,749 (31 December 2023: £1,152,062), and the directors are satisfied that the Company has sufficient funding available to meet all its liabilities as they fall due, in part due to support being provided by its parent company, Indigo Food Group Limited. The directors have prepared forecasts which demonstrate the company will be able to operate for a period of at least 12 months within its anticipated funding facilities.”

Significant events

“Investments previously made by Indigo Food Group Limited, being the acquisition of this site adjacent to the company's current manufacturing operation in Avonmouth, has allowed the sites to become merged and will permit future expansion. Greater certainty regarding BREXIT now enables the group to reconsider the plans and take forward its opportunity at this site.”

Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
