Joint liquidators Adam Price and Lane Bednash of CMB Partners UK Limited were appointed on 22 May 2026 over Woodgreen Meat Market Limited, a retail meat specialist trading from Unit 46 Wood Green Shopping City in north London.
The appointment follows a resolution by members and creditors placing the company into a creditors' voluntary liquidation. A CVL is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order, and is the most common form of corporate insolvency in the UK by volume.
The liquidators
Price holds IP number 25050 and Bednash holds IP number 8882, both practising from CMB Partners UK Limited at 49 Tabernacle Street, London, EC2A 4AA. An IP number is the licence number issued by an insolvency practitioner's recognised professional body, identifying the individual practitioner. Either liquidator may act alone unless the appointment specifies otherwise.
The company
Woodgreen Meat Market Limited was incorporated on 13 March 2006 and carried on the retail sale of meat and meat products in specialised stores from its registered address at Unit 46 Woodgreen Shopping City, Woodgreen, London, N22 6YA. Its most recent accounts, made up to 30 April 2025, were filed as micro-entity accounts.
Officers
The sole current director at the time of the CVL notice was Faraydon Ahmed Mirza, appointed on 11 January 2023. Two earlier directors had already left the business. Faraydon Ahmed Merza resigned on 9 December 2010 after serving since the company's early months, and Dastan Ali Mohammed resigned on 10 January 2023 after more than twelve years in post. Courtney Bree Townsend served as company secretary from 13 March 2006 until 30 April 2012. Total Company Formations Limited and Total Company Secretaries Limited each held nominee roles at incorporation on 13 March 2006 and resigned the same day, a standard incorporation arrangement.
Secured charges
No secured charges are registered against Woodgreen Meat Market Limited at Companies House.
What happens next
Price and Bednash will now realise the company's assets and distribute any proceeds to creditors in the order of priority set out under the Insolvency Act 1986. Creditors wishing to submit a claim should contact CMB Partners UK Limited at the Tabernacle Street address. The London Gazette notice reference is Ag QK22738.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Woodgreen Meat Market Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Woodgreen Meat Market Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Woodgreen Meat Market Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Woodgreen Meat Market Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
