WORLD GOURMET RESTAURANTS LIMITED
Company number 07106419 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
World Gourmet Restaurants Limited presents a stable balance sheet on the surface, but this is entirely reliant on a £615k capital injection from its parent company, Wgr Holdings Limited, which masked a significant operational loss of approximately £381k in 2019. While liquidity has improved and debts have been reduced, the underlying business suffers from negative profitability and dangerously low cash reserves. Immediate focus must be placed on stemming trading losses and improving cash collection to reduce reliance on shareholder life support.
