Review of business and financial review During the course of the year, there was still a degree of disruption as a result of restrictions imposed as part of the Covid-19 recovery plan. Staff and customers who tested positive were still isolating, and this also had an impact on the main book distributors and our ability to receive and despatch books. Coupled with major disruption in the supply chain, caused by Covid-19, driver shortages and various global events, the business continued to face challenges on several fronts. The Directors are pleased to report that the business continued to trade strongly throughout this time, offering support to schools and other establishments. Despite the disruption, trading for the year saw an increase in sales of £3,167,311 representing a rise of 26%","previous_names":[{"name":"PETERS LIBRARY SERVICE LIMITED","changed_on":"2000-01-10"},{"name":"BOOMVISION LIMITED","changed_on":"1990-01-16"}],"warnings":[],"accounts":{"category":"Medium","year_end":"30 April","last_made_up_to":"2025-04-30","next_due":"2027-01-31"},"employees":{"count":95,"accounts_date":"2022-04-30"},"financials":[{"financial_date":"2022-04-30","turnover":15394405,"profit_loss":387321,"net_assets":2892671,"cash":2286012,"average_employees":95},{"financial_date":"2021-04-30","turnover":12227094,"profit_loss":401035,"net_assets":2505350,"cash":3742905,"average_employees":88},{"financial_date":"2020-04-30","net_assets":2104315,"cash":1655750}],"officers":{"current":5,"resigned":10,"complete":true,"note":"Names and details of individual officers are on the People page (subscriber-only on this site) and free at Companies House."},"charges":{"total":2,"outstanding":0},"gazette_notices":[],"insolvency_outcome":null,"ai_summary":null,"website":"https://peters.co.uk","links":{"page":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/ltd/peters","people":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/peters/people","filing_history":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/peters/filing-history","companies_house":"https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02452340","financials":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/peters/financial","control":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/peters/control"},"source":"CompaniesInTheUK, from Companies House, The Gazette and other public registers (see /support/about).
