Sushi handroll kiosk concept Inigo has been liquidated.

Ian Robert of Kingston Smith & Partners LLP was appointed liquidator of Inigo Food Ltd on 19 August.

It comes almost exactly a year after the Australian-style grab-and-go brand launched an equity crowdfunding campaign on Crowdcube in a bid to raise funds to scale up its London operation.

At the time Inigo was seeking £350,000 for a 13.46% investment stake in the company, which was valued at £2,250,000.

Operating a single site in the City (which has since closed), the brand was planning to open ‘at least four more kiosks in high footfall locations and in one food hall’, with a view to launching regional locations should those have proven to be successful.

Though the chain never opened any further sites, earlier this year it did run a pop-up within luxury department store Selfridges’ Food Hall.

Founded in 2017 by Australian entrepreneur Jeremy Bliss and Charlie Hall from hospitality site Code London, Inigo specialised in large, burrito-style sushi handrolls.

Fillings included poke salmon with avocado, pickled daikon, toasted almonds and yuzu mayonnaise; peking duck with toasted peanuts, spring onions, cucumber and hoisin sauce; miso broccoli, cucumber, pickled daikon and black sesame miso; and king prawn with spring onion, cucumber and sriracha mayonnaise.
