Cork firm with 160 staff to be wound up

A Co Cork mechanical services company with debts of almost €2m and 160 employees is beyond saving, the High Court has been told.

Ms Justice Marie Baker ordered the winding up of Harley Mechanical Services Limited, a company that provided various mechanical services for building contractors.

Harley Mechanical, of Gortanacra, Ballymakeera, Co Cork, had been in examinership since late June after the court had heard that if certain steps were taken the firm had a prospect of survival as a going concern.
