30 jobs lost as Market Harborough display products firm goes under

All 30 jobs have been lost at Market Harborough-based Carter Design Group after the company ceased trading.

BDO business restructuring partners Eddie Kerr and Graham Newton were appointed joint administrators to Carter Design Group 23rd November 2017.

The company, based near Market Harborough, Leicestershire, specialised in the design of product displays and point-of-sale materials for shops and retail outlets. The company ceased to trade upon the appointment of administrators and all 30 employees were made redundant.

The joint administrators have completed a sale of certain assets of the business, including the work in progress to an unnamed buyer.

Eddie Kerr, BDO business restructuring partner, said: “Unfortunately, difficult trading conditions and a reduction in orders significantly affected the business, undermining its working capital position.

“The joint administrators are taking all necessary steps to mitigate losses to customers and, going forward, will seek to maximise recoveries for the benefit of all creditors.”
