CHRIS ELEY PRODUCE LIMITED
Company number 01882859 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Chris Eley Produce Limited presents a strong liquidity position with minimal leverage and £630K cash, but faces uncertainty from a significant business model change and seven consecutive years of declining net assets (£3.5M to £2.3M). The investment property (£1.36M) provides substantial asset backing, but without visibility on current trading performance, debt serviceability from operations cannot be confirmed. Any credit facility should be conditional on receiving current management accounts and secured against the investment property with an independent valuation.
