SHAPLA CASH & CARRY LTD
Company number 03313093 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Shapla Cash & Carry presents a mixed credit profile: net assets have strengthened significantly over recent years (£28K to £150K) and bank debt has been substantially reduced, demonstrating improving financial discipline. However, the business appears to be contracting (declining total assets, fewer employees, reduced debtor/creditor levels), cash reserves are critically low at £10,849, and the quick ratio of 0.52x indicates heavy reliance on stock liquidation to meet obligations. A conditional approval is warranted, with facilities sized conservatively against net current assets and structured with appropriate cash flow covenants and personal guarantees.
