HMRC presented a winding-up petition against A7 Commodities Limited, a Bournemouth-registered non-specific commodities trader, on 22 April 2026, claiming to be a creditor of the company.
A winding-up petition is a court filing asking a judge to place a company into compulsory liquidation. In that process, a liquidator realises the company's assets and distributes the proceeds to creditors. Filing a petition does not mean the company has been wound up; the court must consider the matter at a hearing before any order takes effect.
The case, numbered CR-2026-003125, is listed for hearing at the High Court of Justice (Chancery Division), Royal Courts of Justice, 7 Rolls Building, Fetter Lane, London, on 10 June 2026 at 10:30. The notice was authorised on 27 May 2026.

A7 Commodities Limited is registered at 224 Tuckton Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH6 3AA. Its SIC codes cover non-specialised wholesale trade and other business support services. The company was incorporated on 23 April 2019 under the name A7 Digital Limited, which it held until 3 May 2021 when it adopted its current name.
The Companies House register shows the company's status as active with an active proposal to strike off. Its most recent accounts were made up to 30 November 2023.

The petition was presented by the Commissioners for HM Revenue and Customs, whose address for the proceedings is 14 Westfield Avenue, Stratford, London, E20 1HZ.

Common questions
What does a winding-up petition mean for A7 Commodities Limited?
A petition is a court filing, not a court order. A7 Commodities Limited is not yet in liquidation. The court will consider the petition at the date listed in the notice; until then, the company continues to trade, but its bank may freeze accounts and counterparties may stop extending credit. The court can dismiss the petition, adjourn it, or grant a winding-up order.
Are you owed money by A7 Commodities Limited?
You are not yet a creditor in a liquidation; the company is still trading. If you support the petition, you may file a notice of support at the court named in the notice. If the petition is granted, you become an unsecured creditor in the resulting compulsory liquidation and the Official Receiver will invite you to submit a proof of debt.
Did you work at A7 Commodities Limited?
A petition does not by itself terminate your employment. Wages and holiday pay continue to accrue until the company stops paying you or is wound up. Watch the bank position closely; if accounts are frozen, payroll will be the first thing to fail. If the petition is granted, statutory redundancy and notice claims become payable from the Redundancy Payments Service.
Are you a director of A7 Commodities Limited?
Once a petition is filed, the company's directors have a heightened duty to consider the interests of creditors. Continuing to trade where there is no reasonable prospect of avoiding insolvent liquidation can expose directors to personal liability for wrongful trading under Section 214 of the Insolvency Act 1986. Specialist insolvency advice should be taken immediately.
