What happened

AGETUR (U.K.) LIMITED (company number 03726044), incorporated in 1999, entered administration on 1 June 2026. Its status at Companies House is now: administration.

Why it failed

Rising operating costs and a shrinking pipeline of future projects squeezed margins and cash flow, with large losses in 2025, and attempts to find an investor or buyer failed.

  • Main reason: Cost inflation
  • Market downturn
  • Cash flow
  • Sale or investment failed

Our summary of the reasons given in the administrators' proposals. These record the administrators' and directors' account of what happened.

An administrator, a licensed insolvency practitioner, takes control of the company to try to rescue it, sell the business or get a better result for creditors than a liquidation.

Previously known as: SUMMERCOMBE NO 80 LIMITED.
