Executive summary
Pimpernel Wharf Limited is a profitable, solvent wholesale food importer that has more than doubled its net worth over the past decade, supported by its Italian parent group (Caseifici Granterre S.P.A.). However, the company exhibits chronic liquidity symptoms — cash reserves have fallen to just £17,677, the business relies permanently on a £1.1m secured bank overdraft, and trade creditors exceed trade debtors by £377k. The business needs a capital injection from its parent group, tighter working capital management, and a plan to settle the £2.76m intercompany balance to restore healthy cash flow and reduce its dependency on bank facilities.
