They worked for the paper firms that deliver to Murdoch the people that deliver the news papers work for Murdoch :wink: and not finished yet will be kept going until a buyer is found as it’s a viable company

Seen a few on A13 this morning so im guessing the administrators see it as a viable business.

There was a guy on fb this morning who’s father drives for C&H recons that the drivers have been told if its not sold by the 31st October thats it and it will be shut down, oh and also there is no money to pay this month wages, so not sounding to good :open_mouth: :open_mouth:

If they made 200k net last year they are worth ± 800k on a factor 4 , although buyers normally take last 3 or 5 years trading and average surely a managers buy out on the cards , never get a better opportunity with a knackered holding company, providing C&H aren’t lumbered in with the holding company debts.

Good luck and I hope so.

Thanks.Yeah been a nervy week.Just want to know weather it was a managment buyout.Wich I hope.Or do we have new owners.

Been driving past there today (aylesford) and it all seems business as usual - except the agency work seems to have dried up at C&H for the time being. Plenty of work at other firms on the same estate though. :slight_smile:
