The most recent insolvency notice for Globex Cash & Carry Ltd is a Winding up order (Companies), published 05 November 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is C Megram, appointed 27 October 2026. The case is before the Business and Property Courts in Liverpool (case No 000279 of 2026). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 November 2024, showed total assets of £269k and net assets of £251k. Those accounts were filed 21 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.

Owed money by Globex Cash & Carry Ltd?

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 30 November 2024, showed net assets of £251k, so any deterioration came after those figures or is not visible in them. 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 £18k in its last filed accounts, to 30 November 2024. What was owed when the process began will differ, and is set out in the statement of affairs.

How many jobs are affected?

The notices do not say. The last filed accounts recorded an average of 8 employees in the period to 30 November 2024, which is the closest public figure and may be out of date.

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.
