Registry summary

Company overview

EASTERN AUTO SPARES (IPSWICH HOLDINGS) LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 02009629, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 14 April 1986 and lists its registered address as Norwich, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for EASTERN AUTO SPARES (IPSWICH HOLDINGS) LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 9 November 2026.

How these relationships were recorded

EASTERN AUTO SPARES (IPSWICH HOLDINGS) LIMITED sits 2 levels below its ultimate parent, K.J. SHORTIS LIMITED, registered in United Kingdom. 1 subsidiary is recorded beneath it, across 1 jurisdiction. Immediately above EASTERN AUTO SPARES (IPSWICH HOLDINGS) LIMITED is WILCO MOTOR SPARES LIMITED, holding 100% as filed in EASTERN AUTO SPARES (IPSWICH HOLDINGS) LIMITED's own shareholder record with Companies House. K.J. SHORTIS LIMITED sits further up the chain, a link derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions rather than stated in a single document. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 1 subsidiary spans United Kingdom jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear.
