Directors' Report

The following persons served as directors during the period:

Directors' responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (Financial Reporting Standard 102 and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Disclosure of information to auditors
Each person who was a director at the time this report was approved confirms that:
so far as he is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the company's auditor is unaware; and
he has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditor is aware of that information.

Customers
Many of Bridge Cheese's customers have been in partnership with Bridge Cheese for several years and part of Bridge Cheese's success is its ability to maintain positive working relationships with its customers. This has attracted other large clients through our positive reputation and repeat orders. Bridge Cheese places a high importance on working closely with our customers to help them deliver the highest quality standards.
Suppliers
Our supply chain is a key part of our business and Bridge Cheese ensures that it selects suppliers that can help us provide our clients with a quality product. We adopt long term, mutually rewarding, ongoing relationships with our suppliers and subcontractors. We value the huge contribution that the supply chain makes, and we work very hard to ensure that our supply chain partners are treated fairly.
Environment and sustainability
The directors understand that, as well as their legal responsibility to protect the environment, there is an overriding moral responsibility for the Company to have minimal negative impact on the environment. Our aspiration is to leave a sustainable and lasting positive impact on the surrounding area from production through to delivery.
Bridge Cheese Ltd utilises an online reporting tool to measure its waste volumes, energy usage and carbon footprint. Using these measurements, Bridge Cheese is then able to establish targets at Company level and subsequently identify realistic measures to reduce the environmental impact of the business's operations.
Bridge Cheese Ltd is committed to the reduction of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions related to operations across the business. To successfully deliver on this commitment, we have chosen to expand our scope of reporting.
Bridge Cheese is implementing changes across the business to reduce our carbon footprint, for example, we have reduced water usage through improvement in our productions process and equipment; reduced electrical usage through improved chilling processes and equipment; we promote a cycle to work scheme and provide facilities for secure and safe storage of bikes and equipment; we have reduced the carbon footprint of the laundry required for our garments; have instigated a circular economy for PPE that previously went to landfill and we have reduced our carbon footprint by consolidating delivery days of all customers in certain geographical regions.
Bridge Cheese is working with a specialist independent third party to ensure the manner in which carbon emissions are measured, and reported internally, is in line with industry best practice. The scope also includes internal training and guidance on carbon reduction projects that the company works on.
Research & Development Activities
The Company is always looking for continuous improvements from our carbon footprint and environmental impact to our IT infrastructure and systems, to becoming paperless as well as improvements in the way we work on production lines, both from a Health & Safety perspective and a sustainability point of view.
REVIEW OF BUSINESS
GENERAL
The company has performed well against a backdrop of challenging business conditions and market uncertainty. The company's directors believe that, with the careful management of the company's resources, the company will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due and trade profitably.
FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal risks and uncertainties
The principle risks faced by the company and its responses thereto are summarised in this analysis. Not all of these factors are within the company's control. There may be other risks and uncertainties which are unknown to the company or which may not be deemed material now which could turn out to be material in the future. However, the board regularly review these risks and their potential impact on the company.
Key risks and the company's response to these risks are shown below.
1. Financial Risk Management.
The company's financial instruments comprise of cash at bank, loan facility at the company's disposal. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise adequate finance for the company's operations, together with management of working capital.
The main risk arising from the company's financial instruments is liquidity risk. As can be seen from the cash flow notes in the annexed financial statements the company currently does not suffer from a liquidity problem. It alleviates this risk by agreeing credit terms with its customers and suppliers.
2. Foreign Currency and Price Risk
The company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations, although not a significant amount of purchases are in foreign currencies. The company minimises this risk by agreeing appropriate pricing.
The company is exposed to a variability in the price of commodities used in the running of its business. This includes exposure to price fluctuations in ingredients purchased. The company mitigates the risk by aligning where possible price negotiations with suppliers to customer contracts.
3. Competitive pressure risks
The company operates in a highly competitive market environment and performance may suffer if there is a loss of competitiveness vis - a - vis its customers.
The company reviews the competitiveness of its services through regular and direct contact with customers in the market.
Next Phase of Growth
The company will continue the path of organic growth by developing sustainable relationships with new customers in existing markets, developing a range of products that can be sold into new markets along with supporting existing customers to grow. Additional resources have been added where appropriate. This increase in overhead will support the growth of the business.
Overall strategy
The overall strategy for the business is to continue to grow and provide great value to its shareholders.
Outlook
Adverse economic conditions and uncertainty can lead to challenging market conditions which could result in pressure on all functions of the business. A medium term business plan coupled with regular forecasting allows us to pre-empt any periods of difficulty and act early.
Our operations remain heavily dependent on key suppliers and customers. We monitor regularly supplier service & quality levels with contingent arrangements in place where necessary.
The impact of Brexit has been considered on the principal risks noted above. We note that the potentials risk on the economic conditions, particularly the impact of inflation and the reduced purchasing power of pound sterling as well as the uncertainty around the availability of labour in the sector.
This report was approved by the board on 16 April 2025 and signed on its behalf.

Independent auditor's report
to the members of Bridge Cheese Ltd
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Bridge Cheese Ltd (the 'company') for the period ended 28 September 2024 which comprise the Income Statement, the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 28 September 2024 and of its profit for the period then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
the information given in the strategic report and the directors’ report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the strategic report and the directors’ report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
[Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud.]
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Accounts
for the period from 1 October 2023 to 28 September 2024
1 Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
Freehold Buildings over 50 years
Leasehold Land & Buildings over lease term
Plant and machinery over 10 years
Fixtures & Fittings, Tools & Equipment over 5 years
IT Equipment over 3 years
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first in first out method. The carrying amount of stock sold is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Provisions
Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction.

At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.
