What the records show

ABACUS FOODS LIMITED is a private limited company incorporated on 5 November 2002, with its registered office in Buckie. Companies House lists its business as other business support service activities not elsewhere classified. Its most recent accounts were made up to 30 April 2021. Its next accounts, due by 30 April 2023, are overdue.

On 11 September 2026 The Gazette published a notice headed “Winding-up petition filed”.

In the 12 months before its first insolvency notice, Companies House recorded no director changes, charges, change of address or accounts. It has 1 outstanding charge, held by David Robert Boyd as Trustee for the Boyd Family Pension Fund, Raymond Ernest Boyd as Trustee for the Boyd Family Pension Fund and Valerie Boyd as Trustee for the Boyd Family Pension Fund. It has 2 serving directors.

A winding-up petition asks a court to liquidate the company. A creditor can present one if they are owed £750 or more and can show the company cannot pay; the court decides at a hearing, and a petition can be dismissed. Source
