29-30 Frith Street, 3rd Floor, London, W1D 5LG

The most recent insolvency notice for 36 Streets Food Limited is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 17 July 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by HM Revenue & Customs. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case CR-2026-004630 of 2026). The petition was listed to be heard on 29 July 2026 at 1030 hours — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 December 2024, showed total assets of £270k and net assets of -£169k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 18 months before its first insolvency notice. 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.

HMRC is the petitioning creditor, so the debt behind the petition is unpaid tax — most often VAT, PAYE or corporation tax — rather than a trade debt. HMRC petitions usually follow a long run of missed payments and ignored demands.
