Cambria And Vertu Hope To Save Leven Jobs
It is hoped that jobs at The Leven Car Company, which went into administration earlier this month, will be saved. It’s expected that Cambria and Vertu will split the business between them and take on the existing staff.
Cambria are in negotiation to buy the Aston Martin and Rolls-Royce operations. This leaves Vertu to take on the Suzuki, Mitsubishi and Kia businesses.
Leven, which was formed six years ago by Hugh McMahon, went into administration on 7 January.
A statement by Leonard Curtis Business Rescue & Recovery said: “The company, which employs 139 staff across its four dealerships, has ceased trading. At this stage, none of the company’s employees have been made redundant whilst the administrators assess the company’s financial position and explore the possibility of finding a buyer for all or parts of the business.”
