SETMAF LOGISTICS LIMITED
Company number 06649686 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
SETMAF Logistics is a micro-operator in the Thames-side cargo handling sector that has undergone a significant strategic shift in FY2025, acquiring £40,740 in vehicle assets financed predominantly through long-term debt. While this investment signals a pivot toward active trading capacity after years of near-dormant asset levels, the resulting leverage (debt-to-equity of ~6.1x) and complete cash depletion present material financial fragility. The company's niche positioning as a sub-contractor with 5 employees is viable in the current post-Brexit environment where port-side handling services remain in demand, but its thin capitalisation and key-person dependency create structural vulnerabilities that larger competitors in the sector do not share.
