The company behind Daisy Chain, the card and gift shop at 7 Chapel Street in Stratford-upon-Avon, is to be wound up. A notice in The Gazette, the official public record, published on Thursday 12 November, says the members of Daisy Chain Gift Company Limited voted on Monday 9 November to wind the company up voluntarily and appointed two liquidators.
The notice gives the shop on Chapel Street, CV37 6EP, as the company’s principal trading address. Chapel Street runs from the top of Sheep Street to the Guild Chapel, past Nash’s House and the Shakespeare Hotel, so it is one of the main walking routes through the old town.
What the notice says
The resolutions were passed at a general meeting held in Nottingham on 9 November. The joint liquidators are Joseph Sadler and Andrew Cordon of CFS Restructuring LLP, 22 Regent Street, Nottingham, and the notice gives the firm’s phone number, 0115 838 7330, for anyone who needs more information. The Gazette lists the notice under corporate insolvency. It does not say whether the company can pay its debts in full, and it does not mention staff, stock or gift vouchers.
Companies House records show the company was set up on 19 August 2009, is registered as a non-specialised retailer, and filed accounts for the year to 30 June 2026 in August. On 2 November it moved its registered office to the liquidators’ address in Nottingham. When we checked on the afternoon of 12 November, its Companies House page still showed the company as active; the Gazette notice is the official record of the resolution.
Is Daisy Chain still open?
We couldn’t confirm it either way. The shop’s own website, daisychaingiftcompany.com, was not loading on Thursday afternoon, and its listing on the Visit Stratford-upon-Avon shopping directory has been taken down. Neither the notice nor any statement we have found says when, or whether, the shop will close. We will update this story when the liquidators or the business say more.
If you have a gift voucher, an order or money owed by the company, the liquidators are the people to contact, using the details in the Gazette notice. In a voluntary liquidation the liquidators take control of the company, sell what it owns and deal with anyone it owes money to, in the order the law sets out. Gift voucher holders usually rank as unsecured creditors.
