The most recent insolvency notice for Northwood Forest Products International Limited is a Resolution for winding up (MVL), published 22 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Nicholas James Harris; Stephen James Hobson, appointed 15 October 2026. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 April 2025, showed total assets of £812k and net assets of £490k. Those accounts were filed 18 months before the first insolvency notice, so they describe the company well before the process began. A members' voluntary liquidation (MVL) is the solvent, orderly winding-up of a company that can pay its debts in full — usually part of a director's retirement, a group restructure, or closing a company that has served its purpose. It is a planned closure, not a sign of financial distress.
