Food and beverage producers: records from closed and closing companies

If you control the assets of a company in the food and beverage producers sector that is in administration, liquidation or bankruptcy, its operational records may be licensable. Here is what usually exists, what needs care and how to check fit.

What usually exists

Production and food safety procedures
Supplier and distributor correspondence
New product development records

What needs care

Recipes may be trade secrets
Check retailer agreements

Employee and HR records always need the most care, whatever the industry.

Systems to look for

Food safety and HACCP records
Production procedures
NPD trackers
Distributor correspondence
Teams

Export while admin access still works.

SMEs (30 to 249 staff)

Act within weeks. Software subscriptions lapse after closure and exports disappear with them.
One person usually knew every system. Get their help with exports before they move on.

Enterprises (250+ staff)

Start with a data map: systems, owners, years, volumes and where personal data sits.
Carve out privileged, regulated and client-confidential material before any sample is prepared.
