The death of a company can be a sad thing. It can be a distressing time for employees facing the prospect of unemployment. Here we list the oldest companies that have gone into administration. Old companies have history and can be well established - sometimes representing well known brands. Although the company had gone into administation, it can does have to mean the death of the company. The goodwill in the brand may mean the business has some desirable assets and a new owner can invest in the business allowing the company to be re-born.
