Camputers goes into liquidation

FOLLOWING the meeting of their creditors, Camputers Ltd and GW Design Services have agreed to go into voluntary liquidation.

Hacker Young and Partners and Cork Gully have been appointed joint liquidators.

“The company has had talks With various potential purchasers and some have been very serious,” said John Spence of Camputers’ stockbrokers Statham Duff Stoop. “It is simply a case of waiting and hoping someone comes up with a bid.”

Keith Spencer of Hacker Young confirmed that two potential buyers had had initial discussions with the liquidators.

“In fact, up until last week someone had appeared to be ready to take over, and it is unclear why they pulled out. We would hope that they might come back to negotiate now that the company is in liquidation.”
