• "Whispers that something is cooking at Conival left the specialist branded food and beverage company ¼p dearer at 1¾p on meaty turnover of 7m. Celebrity chef Marco Pierre White created the company in 2005 and still owns 8% of the equity. The speculation coincided with the start last night of a new series of 'Hell's Kitchen' on ITV1, where White gave ten celebrities plenty of verbal."


And the rumour is also reported on

"Punters were again picking up stock in Conival, 0.25 up at 2.00 pence, amid increasing investor speculation at the specialist branded food and beverage company. Celebrity chef Marco Pierre White created the company in 2005 and still sits on 8 pct of the equity."

Just been reading about this company. I noticed that it had acquisitioned 'Portfolio Products' back in 2005. Why is this of interest? :

"Portfolio Products was incorporated in April 2004 and was set up with
the intention of assembling and commercialising a portfolio of rights to
Celebrity brands in relation to food, beverages and other nutritional products.
Since that date agreements with a number of celebrities have been signed as
follows:


Celebrity Name Related Products/Product Range
Marco Pierre White Unlimited
Jean Christophe Novelli Desserts and ice creams
Nancy Lam Chinese meals and ingredients
Vineet Bhatia Indian meals and ingredients
Matt Roberts Vitamins, minerals and supplements
Barrough Hospitality Meat, poultry, game and non-alcoholic
beverages
(for use of the Blenheim and Blenheim Palace names)
Wheelers of St James's Fish products
Coleridge Jams, preserves, pickles and chutney



Generally, these agreements provide for Portfolio Products to use trademarks
relating to these celebrities and for the celebrities to endorse and promote the
relevant products."

Marco Pierre White is confirmed as the new face of Hell's Kitchen, replacing Gordon Ramsay, and Conival has been reporting that "the Marco Pierre White brand is in final development awaiting listing with retailers."

If Conival get things right the potential is there for a massive hit.

I believe Hell's Kitchen (Celebrity version) will be aired later this year. If Conival can get this product in the shops by then, then there will be huge advertising potential. With Conival being know to be a bit coy in letting investors know what they are actually doing, I wait with anticipation and hope that they can pull this one off.

Thank you for your concern mashman, no it doesn't hurt as i am not one of their poor investors. I feel the whole thing is a big con, it's as simple as that.The fruit content is not from Blenheim Palace it is simply a trading name. I wouldn't invest in this.

Believe it or not I hate seeing people lose money in this way.

There are too many companies floating which are purely and simply start-ups.

Regardless of whatever it says in the prospectus or how ever many brokers push them, they are just that - startups.

In the non-PLC world the majority of startups go bump within 3 years - I forget the statistics, but they are painful to see.

There is no difference in the PLC float world imo, its just on a bigger scale and it takes a load of investors with it, whereas for private companies the founders lose their houses.

Maybe cynical, but if you're a founder and you've got the choice (through contacts, publicity and sheer gall etc. etc.) then the option of floating is much more attractive than risking all your own savings and house(es).

Always worth remembering that companies float:
1. To allow original investors to get out
2. To get money for expansion, pay off debts, loans etc. etc.

They don't float to make money for new shareholders, but they have to look like they will from the prospectus.

imo you're just lucky if you make money from a float, unless you just stag a promising hyped new issue.

My record on floats: lost 4 out of 5 bigtime. Stopped doing it in 2001 and started buying floats a couple of years down the line, when you can see whether its really a growth business or whether its been smoke and mirrors.
Still not brilliant but at least have made small overall gain. Buying established growth stocks performance has greatly exceeded anything floatish.

Brave or stupid lol!! I understand that the pxs/sirco factor may have played a part however this company is not a one trick pony see (Portfolio Products) if it decides to move..!! It was not to far back that js purchased a bundle at 4.3 odd. Dobo what makes you think that these will not recover..


If there has been a leak theses are the most likely chain of events


1 Company to issue extra shares to raise equity for rollout of new products

2 SparkyBrand to get shove from Sainsburys

3 Rerating of cvl due to supermarkets launching own products with added omega3 in

4 A major holder selling stock (unlikely only 3.3 mil traded most of that private investors)



Remember this companies stated aim is to nuture and devolep brands and they have Andrew Regan lurking in the background he didnt do a bad job with LLoyd Grossmans sauces and a strong cheif exec in js .... Providing we dont end up with a zillion shares i wouldn't write this one off. Although i would not advise anyone to buy this share until news confirms what is going on.

Any views welcome...

Afternoon brum. COLD feet, not itchy, I would suggest! Not a problem long term, imo. Re Blenheim Palace... not seen this up in Scotland. Is this another CVL trademark, or a competitor? Only ref I can find is an RNS report on Investors Chronical... but it appears to be defunct.
