11 Laura Place, Bath, BA2 4BL

The most recent insolvency notice for Kimble Trading Limited is an Appointment of liquidators (MVL), published 11 November 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Neil Frank Vinnicombe and Simon Robert Haskew, BTG Begbies Traynor (Central) LLP, 11c Kingsmead Square Bath BA1 2AB, appointed 27 October 2026. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2025, showed total assets of £1.4m and net assets of £1.0m. Those accounts were filed 19 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.

What happens next

Because this is a solvent liquidation, creditors are paid in full. The liquidator advertises for claims, settles them, distributes the surplus to the shareholders and the company is then dissolved. Anyone owed money should still submit their claim to the liquidator named in the notice, and within the period the notice states.

Owed money by Kimble Trading Limited?

A bad debt this size rarely stops with the company that failed. If you're a supplier or creditor left short, it's worth knowing where you rank — and checking what the shortfall does to your own cashflow.
