Sectors We Support with Specialist Liquidation Services
Construction Companies
Cash flow issues, unpaid CIS liabilities, and delayed payments from main contractors continue to impact thousands of small construction firms. If your business can no longer meet its financial commitments, we provide fast and compliant support for construction company liquidation.
Pubs
Pubs have been hit hard by rising costs, energy bills and falling trade. If your pub is no longer financially viable, we offer tailored guidance and a fast route to closing the business properly through a Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL).
Retail
From high street shops to online sellers, many retail businesses are now facing mounting debt, low footfall and unsustainable costs. We help shop owners and e-commerce companies close their business correctly and avoid further stress.
Manufacturing
High energy costs, supply chain disruption and Bounce Back Loan repayments have pushed many manufacturing firms into insolvency. If your business is struggling, we offer clear, fast guidance on closing it down safely.
Haulage and Transport
With fuel prices, driver shortages and tight margins, many haulage and courier businesses are under pressure. If your transport company can’t keep up with its liabilities, we’ll help you wind it down professionally.
Cleaning and Facilities
Low-margin contracts, late client payments and staff costs have left many cleaning and support service providers unable to continue. We help companies in this sector close down quickly and protect their directors from further liability.
Digital and Tech Businesses
SaaS companies, agencies and IT firms are often asset-light but carry high overheads. If your digital business is no longer viable, we’ll help you exit properly, including guidance on any Bounce Back Loan or personal guarantee obligations.
Professional Services
From consultants and architects to accountants and recruitment firms, professional service businesses can be hit hard by delayed client payments and lost contracts. If your firm is no longer sustainable, we’ll help you close it in a structured, compliant way.
Events, Creative and Marketing
Events firms, creative agencies and marketing businesses often depend on seasonal income and recurring clients. If that flow has stopped and debts are building, our team will help you close the company with full support.
