Paid The Kitchen People? The company in administration is C & A Joinery, not the company actually called The Kitchen People Pty Ltd.

"The Kitchen People is in administration" is useful shorthand. It is also incomplete.

The company actually in voluntary administration is C & A Joinery Pty Ltd, ACN 130 865 048. C & A Joinery holds the registered business name The Kitchen People and also trades as C&A Shopfitting. A household may know the company through a kitchen renovation. A commercial creditor may know the same company through shopfitting work.

There is a second complication. A separate active company called The Kitchen People Pty Ltd, ACN 634 494 054, also exists. That is not the company identified in the administration, and the similar names do not by themselves establish that the two companies are related.

A person searching "The Kitchen People insolvency" can encounter two different legal entities. The paperwork matters more than the branding. Look for C & A Joinery Pty Ltd, ACN 130 865 048, on quotes, contracts, invoices and payment details.

C & A Joinery entered voluntary administration on 25 August 2026 under Rajiv Ghedia. It trades as The Kitchen People and C&A Shopfitting. A separate active company legally named The Kitchen People Pty Ltd also exists.

No relationship between C & A Joinery and The Kitchen People Pty Ltd. No established count of kitchen deposits, incomplete renovations, shopfitting contracts, or unpaid supplier claims.

Customers should keep contracts, drawings, invoices, receipts, variations, delivery promises and correspondence. Commercial creditors should keep purchase orders, invoices, delivery records, statements and any security or retention-of-title documentation.

No court winding-up process identified.
