A food company at the centre of a meat fraud investigation has edged towards appointing administrators.
Three people were arrested at Loscoe Chilled Foods last week after police and Trading Standards officials turned up at the firm, which is being investigated over allegedly supplying meat from South America and Europe that had been labelled as British.
It is alleged that supermarket chain Booths could have been supplied with some of the meat in question.
TheBusinessDesk.com has now seen documents that show Loscoe Chilled Foods has filed a notice of intention to appointment administrators.
This protects the firm from its creditors for a period of 10 days.
