Spirit of Harrogate Limited, the Harrogate based retailer and owner of the Slingsby Gin product range, has instructed Lewis Business Recovery & Insolvency to assist with placing the company into administration. Gareth Lewis and Matthew Russell are the proposed Joint Administrators.
See https://www.spiritofharrogate.co.uk/ for further details of the business.
The business has 5 employees and was founded in 2014 by local entrepreneurs Marcus Black and Mike Carthy.
Statement from Gareth Lewis, proposed Administrator of Lewis Business Recovery & Insolvency:
Unfortunately the business has, like many in its sector, struggled with rising costs and difficult trading conditions in recent years.
Spirit of Harrogate is one of Harrogate’s iconic independent retailers and the Slingsby Gin product range is very well respected both locally and nationally.
We are now actively marketing the business and assets for sale as a going concern in an attempt to preserve jobs and maximise the return for creditors.
Any interested parties should contact my colleague Olivia Oates on 0113 2459444.
