Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The administrators attributed the company's losses primarily to increasing costs of raw material stock, manufacturing, and shipping, combined with deteriorating demand from key customers. The company had supplied customers including John Lewis, which creates a supply chain disruption.
