The most recent insolvency notice for R Campbell Commercials Limited is an Appointment of liquidators (Court), published 16 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is Michelle Elliot, appointed 08 October 2026. The case is before the Dumbarton Sheriff Court (case No DBN-L9 of 2026). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 April 2021, showed total assets of £294k and net assets of £86k. Those accounts were filed 65 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

A winding-up petition asks the court to place a company into compulsory liquidation. Until an order is made the petition can still be dismissed or withdrawn — if the debt is paid, if it is genuinely disputed on substantial grounds, or if the court is persuaded to adjourn while a rescue is put in place. If an order is made, the company stops trading, its bank accounts are frozen, and a liquidator realises the assets and pays creditors in the order fixed by law; creditors prove their debts to the liquidator or the Official Receiver rather than to the company.
