The Wine Arcade Limited

The Wine Arcade Limited is a small, active company based in St Helens, UK, founded four years ago in October 2020. It operates as an e-commerce site and is run by two directors and two owners, Hothersall Christopher John and Scott Timothy John. The company's registered address is real, with only two other companies registered there. The Wine Arcade focuses on the wholesale of wine, beer, spirits, and other alcoholic beverages, and occasionally imports drinks, alcohol, and vinegar, with its last import operation in November 2022.

The company’s website, The Wine Arcade, presents itself as a purveyor of “rare finds for curious minds,” offering a curated selection of wines from around the world. It highlights lesser-known grape varieties and regions, emphasizing unique stories and character over traditional wine snobbery. The site also features a blog with news and tasting notes, and offers mixed cases for those seeking a diverse selection. The site has a very good feel to it, and is clearly aimed at a customer who enjoys discovering new things.

Financially, The Wine Arcade Limited shows a mixed picture. Cash reserves have increased significantly, jumping 550% to £8,500, which is good news. However, net assets still sit at a negative £36,000, a slight improvement from the previous year's -£42,000. Creditors have decreased by 21%, suggesting better management of short-term debts, but trade debtors have also fallen by 47%, which could indicate slower customer payments. Inventories have decreased by 44%, which could be a positive sign of efficient stock management, or a sign of reduced sales. The company’s small size (meeting two of three criteria for turnover under £10.2m, assets under £5.1m, and fewer than 50 employees) means it’s likely exempt from a full audit, and the figures are unaudited.

Registered in England/Wales under the registration number 12966704, with a registered address at WA9 3EZ, England, St Helens, Merseyside, Worsley Brow, Sutton.
