Just seen that UK Leisure has gone into administration. That's a big one to go :shock:

They are one of the largest suppliers of blank clothing (tees/hoodies/workwear etc) in the UK. Pencarrie (another blanks supplier) have taken over I believe.

I keep seeing companies going belly up every week in promotional and branded merchandise, both big and small.

Yes, I did hear as well. Pencarrie and also another lady from UKL have taken them over.

So will be interesting to see the changes.

Ah, cheers Andrew, when I googled it, I got a Blackpool company that specialise in hen/stag weekends.

I'm really new to this, so not clued up yet on who the big players are, so to speak

Where did you see this Andrew? We had an email from them only a couple of days ago advising us of a massive increase in stock levels. If it is Administration then they may still be trading whilst they look for a buyer to take them over (bit like Portsmouth Football Club!). Would be interested to see the press release confirming this...
