Hi Andrew,
.Hall & Roche cherry-pick assets of collapsed W F Hall

A number of the assets of insolvent W F Hall & Son have been snapped up by related company Swansea-based Hall & Roche Logistics.
Fishguard-based W F Hall, which has an O-licence for 20 vehicles and 40 trailers, owed non-preferential creditors £795,984.17 when it appointed Roger Hale and Robert Lewis of PricewaterhouseCoopers company liquidators on 4 April.
The bulk of the firm’s assets, worth £219,900.34, were used to pay off secured claimants, leaving the haulier with a £817,331.57 deficiency.
Conor Roche, a director of both W F Hall and Hall & Roche, which operated as different companies, says: "W F Hall really struggled with the December snow and had a number of customers unwilling to accept a fuel surcharge. To make matters worse, the business was hit by debts of around £150,000 when its client Falcon Steel entered administration in January
Cheers Dave…
