The most recent insolvency notice for Spud Brothers Limited is a Resolution for winding up (CVL), published 12 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Jasmine Baxter (IP No. 31870) of Anderson Brookes Insolvency Practitioners Limited, 1st Floor, Fairclough House, Church Street, Chorley, Lancashire, PR7 4EX; Ri, appointed 5 October 2026. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2023, showed total assets of £0 and net assets of -£46k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 42 months before its first insolvency notice. Liquidation winds a company up: a licensed insolvency practitioner (the liquidator) is appointed to sell the company's assets and distribute the proceeds to creditors in the order fixed by law, after which the company is dissolved. A creditors' voluntary liquidation (CVL) is started by the company's own directors and shareholders once it can no longer pay its debts as they fall due.

What happens next

The liquidator realises the assets, writes to known creditors inviting claims, reports on the directors' conduct, and distributes what is recovered in the order fixed by law — costs of the liquidation, preferential creditors, secured creditors, then unsecured creditors. Claims go to the liquidator named in the notice, not to the company. The company is dissolved once the liquidation is complete.

Owed money by Spud Brothers 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.

  • Its last filed accounts, to March 2023, already showed negative net assets of -£46k, 42 months before the first insolvency notice.

Each of these is visible months before a Gazette notice. Directors who act at that stage keep far more options open, from an informal turnaround to a CVA or restructuring plan.
