What this business does
Primary activity: SIC 10130
Sector: Manufacturing
Investor take
Special-situation opportunity
Distressed food-drink with salvageable qualities — special-situations priority.

Opportunity 60/100 (worth a look), bankability 55/100. Biggest value-creation lever: File overdue accounts. Clears statutory overdue flag — immediate bankability uplift for refinance conversations. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (50/100).

Data confidence

Overall: low (40/100)

Owner dependency

55/100
Moderate — manageable with handover

Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.

FACTORS
  • +No director turnover: Company is 18 years old with no director changes — suggests a very tight-knit founder team never broadened.

Succession & seller-readiness

30/100
Weak signal

Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.

Red flags

1 high ·
Accounts overdue
