W&H Enterprises Limited compulsory liquidation

Liquidation Company no. SC533370 Incorporated Apr 2016 Retail & Wholesale G postcode area

Companies House record →

227 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 2ND

The most recent insolvency notice for W&H Enterprises Limited is an Appointment of liquidators (Court), published 09 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is Sarah Bedford, appointed 30 September 2026. The case is before the Glasgow Sheriff Court (case No GLA-L130 of 2026). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 April 2024, showed total assets of £248k and net assets of -£64k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 27 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

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 Until an order is made the petition can still be dismissed or withdrawn — if the debt is paid, if it is genuinely disputed on substantial grounds, or if the court is persuaded to adjourn while a rescue is put in place.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.

Owed money by W&H Enterprises Limited?

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.
