Just a quick note to say a big thank you to all the staff at KSA, our CVA was passed today by creditors voting in an overwhelming number including HMRC to accept the proposal as prepared by KSA.
The road to reach today’s conclusion has been bumpy, but at each stage your team has supported and guided us through the issues and we have reached a very satisfactory outcome to the benefit of customers, staff, all creditors and shareholders.
Regional Managers
Our Regional Managers all have extensive experience in the turnaround sector and many have been directors of distressed businesses themselves, so know what you are going through! They will talk to you and arrange a free meeting at your earliest convenience. After the meeting they will issue a free solutions report setting out your options and your best course of action along with full costs in writing.
