Strategic report

Review of Business
This latest set of financial statements shows the Company's continued ability to compete in an increasingly competitive market and again has shown an excellent return on its efforts.
Turnover increased to £20,138.448 (£13,250.592 in 2019).
Profit before tax was £387,433 and although a decrease on the previous year, administrative expenses were also much reduced.
The Company thrives on its strong retail foundations.
Online Sales in all product/service categories have continued to grow as expected. It provides the Company with even greater efficiency with the ability to plan work in the centers' going forward.
Another year of zero bad debt shows the Company's strict adherence to its credit procedures has again been successful.
The Company's Corporate and Social Responsibility policy continually ensures active compliance within the spirit of the law, ethical standards and international norms, risk management and effective controls.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Fast-fit industry is forever developing for the future and is subject to continual change.
The Company, essentially a small family run business for 28 years provides a level of service that we believe is second to none.
In this competitive World, service and the development of trust with our customers over a period of time is essential to compete and beat our competitors in this market.
Brexit
The continuing uncertainty surrounding Brexit continues to thrive. Many businesses will be profoundly affected by this. The motor trade although not immune to the negative impact, has however been relatively unaffected thus far.
The need for replacement parts for cars will continue. Much of our product is sourced from the UK and to safeguard any import tariffs in the unlikely event of a no deal, the Company has increased its stock of key component parts to the business. This will smooth over any immediate disruption to the supply chain.
Covid-19
The onset of Covid-19 towards the end of March last year marched us into the unknown.
The Company monitored it's footfall closely together with incoming telephone enquiries from its customers.
There was a distinct pattern developing and the downward trend prompted evasive action.
We elected to close our centers during April and early May. We received the business interruption grants for all of our centers, we furloughed the majority of our staff and accepted the rates incentives etc.
Our remaining staff were tasked with interior and exterior decoration of the centers.
Similarly, we ruthlessly cut costs to protect our liquidity. In particular we returned stock that fell outside of our payment terms. This exercise was a huge success and is now a regular discussion point with management.
The strength and resilience of the Company is ongoing. There was never a need for Government backed loans and trade recovered to 90% of its previous year's month on month comparison from June 2020.
Development and Performance
The significance of the impact of the Electric Car Era cannot be ignored.
The Company and in particular it's front line staff are well researched and trained in the future of electric cars and their component parts. The stock of tyres in particular has seen a dramatic change in its profile as has battery stocks to harness the `stop start' era.
Diagnostic equipment is constantly being upgraded to handle the ever-diversifying customer demands.
Financial Key Performance indicators
The performance of the Company is monitored and reported daily to our managers.
Key indicators include customer numbers, gross sales, profit margin on sales, and a breakdown of key product groups with a direct comparison to the previous year's performance.
Phone calls are continually monitored and in-house training is implemented as required to ensure our effectiveness in this very important role.
Going Concern
The Company`s management accounts to January 2021 have clearly shown that its ruthless cost cutting measures have worked well. Each month, in particular during lockdown, it has shown a profit and now in March 2021 business is close to the seasonal norm.
The directors are confident that the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of its financial accounts is appropriate.
The company has shown its ability to adapt to unprecedented market conditions and will continue in operational existence in the future.

Directors responsibilities statement
The directors are responsible for preparing the strategic report, directors report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and the profit or loss of the company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

-
so far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditor is unaware; and - they have taken all steps that they ought to have taken as a director to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditor is aware of that information.

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the strategic report and the directors' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the strategic report and the directors' report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
