The most recent insolvency notice for MR. Chow Restaurant Limited is an Appointment of administrators, published 07 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Kevin Ley (IP No. 25090); Adam Harris (IP No. 15454), appointed 3 September 2026.

Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 December 2024, showed total assets of £5.1m and net assets of £2.7m.

Administration is a formal insolvency process in which licensed insolvency practitioners (the administrators) take control of a company to try to rescue it as a going concern, or — where that is not possible — to achieve a better result for creditors than an immediate winding-up and to realise the assets. A statutory moratorium halts most legal action against the company while the administrators act.
