Administration & CVL Asset Realisation Outright Purchase Formal Documentation 24-Hour Valuation All East Anglia

For Insolvency Practitioners

A reliable trade buyer
for East Anglian administrations

When a business enters administration or creditors' voluntary liquidation, the IP needs to realise asset value quickly, with minimum complication and a reliable counterparty.

We are an outright trade buyer — not an auction house, not a broker. We buy assets directly, provide clear documentation and handle collection across the region, including Ipswich, Norwich, Bury St Edmunds, Stowmarket, Cambridge, Haverhill, Thetford, Diss, Newmarket, Colchester and the wider East Anglia area. There are no buyer premiums to factor in, no auction timetables to navigate, and no uncertainty about whether a sale will complete.

We are experienced in working alongside IPs across Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire and understand the reporting, documentation and timing requirements involved. We aim to make your role easier, not more complicated.

Rapid Response

Indicative valuation within 24 hours. We understand the time pressure of administration timetables and CVL processes — and prioritise accordingly.

Outright Purchase

Clean outright acquisition — no auction timetable, no commission, no buyer premiums, no risk of unsold lots. Settlement on collection.

Formal Documentation

We provide purchase agreements and receipts appropriate for insolvency processes and R&P reporting requirements.

Region-wide Collection

We cover Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire and coordinate collection around your timetable — including multi-site administrations and premises with access constraints.

What We Buy in Administrations

From single items to
full factory clearances

We are generalists with specialist knowledge — able to assess and purchase across a wide range of commercial and industrial categories. We do not cherry-pick, and we regularly purchase mixed or unlisted lots where a full inventory is not available.

Our particular strengths are electrical and electronic components, industrial tooling (including tungsten carbide), test and measurement equipment, photographic and optical equipment, automotive and engineering spares, and commercial IT. We also regularly buy end-of-line retail and commercial stock.

Initial Contact

Agreement & Documentation

We issue a formal purchase agreement for the IP's records. All documentation is clear and suitable for inclusion in the IP's reports to creditors.

Collection & Payment

We arrange collection at a date convenient to the administration timetable. Payment is made on collection or by prior bank transfer arrangement.
