PROD contested by author. Local company with no footprint beyond its local area. All sources in the article bar one are press releases and other non-independent sources. The one exception is a mention in a BBC News article about the opening of the building the company is based in. Several other brief news reports cover the same event but none cover the company in depth. The notability criteria for companies are not met.

Delete. Fails WP:NCORP. I had declined the draft, and then renamed it. It is possible the author didn't like the new name and tried to rename it back but it ended up in mainspace. I was in the process of draftifying due to their COI when the AfD tag was added. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 20:24, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - as above, obvious WP:NCORP fail. Thparkth (talk) 21:25, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:CORP. Also WP:PROMO applies here. LibStar (talk) 22:09, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@LibStar: I don't think that's entirely fair. Although I'm guessing the author has a connection to the company, the content of the article appears to be mostly neutral and factual. The reason we're having this discussion is that the subject doesn't meet the criteria for inclusion. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 11:41, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, delete it. Luke 22:24, 21 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I agree, topic fails NCORP criteria for establishing notability. HighKing⁺⁺ 16:06, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, fails notability, looks promotional. Alex-h (talk) 16:34, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
