The most recent insolvency notice for Vapouround International Limited is a Winding up order (Companies), published 21 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is S Brindley, appointed 15 October 2026. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case No 000842 of 2026). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 July 2023, showed total assets of £6k and net assets of -£2k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 39 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.

What happens next

The liquidator now realises the company's assets, invites creditors to prove their debts, and distributes what is recovered in the statutory order: the costs of the liquidation, preferential creditors (including employees' unpaid wages up to the statutory cap), secured creditors, then unsecured creditors. The liquidator must also report on the conduct of the directors. The company is normally dissolved about three months after the liquidator's final account.

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.

Why did the company go into liquidation?

The Gazette notices record the legal steps, not the cause, so they do not say why the company failed. Its last filed accounts, to 31 July 2023, showed liabilities exceeding assets by £2k. For a fuller picture, look in the company's filing history at Companies House for the statement of affairs or the office holder's reports, where these have been filed.

How much did the company owe?

The notices do not give a figure. The closest public number is total liabilities of £9k in its last filed accounts, to 31 July 2023. What was owed when the process began will differ, and is set out in the statement of affairs.

Financial figures are taken from the company's own last accounts filed at Companies House. Small and micro-entity accounts are unaudited, and for a company entering an insolvency process the most recent filing frequently predates that process by a year or more.
