MALIK POULTRY LIMITED
Company number 01392333 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Malik Poultry Limited is a long-established but micro-scale operator in the UK poultry production and wholesale sector, positioned well below the industry's dominant players. While its 45-year trading history demonstrates resilience, the dramatic deterioration in working capital—from net current assets of £37k to net current liabilities of £233k—alongside a halving of the cash balance, raises significant liquidity concerns despite a stable net asset position. The substantial capital investment in plant and machinery (£375k) signals ongoing commitment to the business, but the company's heavy reliance on directors' funding, minimal staffing, and concentrated debtor risk create a fragile operational structure that would struggle to absorb any significant supply chain disruption or customer loss.
