Z &E Halal Meat LTD faces a winding-up petition

The most recent insolvency notice for Z &E Halal Meat LTD is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 25 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by ROOK BRISTOL FINANCIAL LLC. The case is before the High Court of Justice, Business and Property Courts (case CR-2026-006299). The petition was listed to be heard on 7 October 2026 at 10:30 hours (or as soon thereafter as the Petition can be heard) — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 April 2024, showed total assets of £548k and net assets of £312k. Those accounts were filed 29 months before the first insolvency notice, so they describe the company well before the process began. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.

What happens next

At the hearing the court decides whether to make a winding-up order. Until it does, the petition can still be dismissed or withdrawn — if the debt is paid, if it is genuinely disputed on substantial grounds, if the company has a cross-claim larger than the debt, or if the court is persuaded to adjourn while a rescue or refinancing is put in place. If an order is made, the company stops trading, its bank accounts are frozen, control passes to the Official Receiver and a liquidator is appointed to sell the assets and pay creditors in the order fixed by law.
