HIKER CAFE LIMITED
Company number 06924830 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Hiker Cafe Limited is a long-established café business, but its 2024 balance sheet is thinly capitalised with negative working capital and debtors of £143k against cash of just £32k. Reported profitability appears minimal, so the company cannot support unsecured lending on its current financial position. I recommend conditional approval only, secured by personal guarantees and a debenture, with further evidence of debtor collectability and operating cash flow required before any drawdown.
