G.H. CHENNELLS (FARMS) LIMITED
Company number 01244279 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
G.H. Chennells (Farms) Limited presents an improving credit profile with net assets growing from £583k to £1.4M over four years and a significant working capital turnaround in the latest period. However, the extremely thin cash position (£5,131), high gearing, and agricultural sector volatility require careful facility structuring. Any lending should be secured against the substantial land and property asset base and structured with seasonal repayment flexibility. The long-established family ownership and positive financial trajectory support a conditional approval, with monitoring focused on cash flow, commodity prices, and debt service compliance.
