Re: Breyer Group
It’s happening daily in the construction industry. The banks currently view construction as a risk so will not support struggling companies. Despite nobody wanting to admit it , our economy is on the floor and the country is in recessionYanzi Gravy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 4:25 pm Sad news

Re: Breyer Group
Irrespective of economic cycles, banks have always viewed the construction industry as high risk.

Re: Breyer Group
You would not think so when one and a half million homes are under construction according to The DPM Rayner. Then again, banks only give an umbrella when it is not raining.George M wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 4:57 pmIt’s happening daily in the construction industry.

Re: Breyer Group
I seem to remember I flagged this when they first got the stadium rights. The owners have a history of dissolving companies.

Re: Breyer Group
I used to work in the credit policy department of a large bank. The exception would have been RBS & BoS in the run up to the Financial Crisis. Nothing canny about the Scots at that time.George M wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 6:04 pmProbably .

Re: Breyer Group
Breyer Group are not victims of the recession etc
They made a grave mistake in a (2017) job for Lewisham Councul involving about £3m of doors which were found to be unsafe.
Lewisham (rightly) sued for £3m money back. Breyer went to arbitration and lost. Then Lewisham had to pay AN Other to replace e the doors and sent the Breyer bill for another £3m
Breyer took this to arbitration on basis that they had already effectively paid out. But the arbitration went against them as the panel agreed that Lewisham should not have to pay to put right their faulty workmanship.
All of this is in the public domain.
Breyer cocked up by failing to install the right doors but the arbitration costs plus legal fees would have sent any company into serious financial difficulty.
According to construction news Breyer fought hard to stay going - because 62 years trading is worth fighting for.
Sadly they couldn’t withstand a barrage of writs and subsequently gone into administration.

Re: Breyer Group
Maybe go and have a look at the amount of companies ‘Breyer’ has on companies house. Maybe take a note of what you say about ignorance, you need to take your own advise, clown.ContrifibulatoryFred wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 9:15 pmWhat rotBiggsyMalone wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 8:07 pm I seem to remember I flagged this when they first got the stadium rights.

Re: Breyer Group
Timothy Breyer has only been a director of Breyer associated cos, I agree he is not a man who opens & closes cos.

You are the one who made a ludicrous statement claiming some kind of past insight which frankly doesn’t stand up.

I worked for 23 years in the banking industry. I having nothing but contempt for it myself.
