A public notice says any parties claiming an interest in the firm, which is registered at Letham Farmhouse on Farmstead Road, should contact Dunfermline Sheriff Court, 1/6 Carnegie Drive, Dunfermline, KY12 7HJ within eight days of intimation, service and advertisement.
Liquidation is the process of closing a limited company, selling the assets to pay off debts and dissolving the company from the official register at Companies House.
In short it will stop doing business and employing people.
In general terms liquidation is the process a company faces when there are cash flow problems and creditors are threatening to take enforcement action.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
