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

- “The investment made in 2024 in a new warehouse and stockholding system has created significant opportunities for the business to maintain it strong market position and improve it operational efficiencies. The investment in solar energy on the roof of the warehouse has allowed the business to mitigate some of the risks around energy price hikes whilst maintaining a social conscience by reducing our carbon footprint.”
