Like the Kodak I guess time was up but sad in any case for a long established business.

It is a long video so to summarise the things that Luke mentioned that conspired against the company
Workers Comp
Payroll Tax
Cost of living
Fuel price
Loss of Beechy his manager
Competition
Unable  to get staff/ Staff unable to find housing in the business town ( Gloucester)

And I will add - handy men making there own drawers like me.

It should be noted this is only regarding the drifta drawer company but the Drifta Stockton company will trade on.
