Games Workshop Deutschland GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 38912 Düsseldorf, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. The company was incorporated on 28 April 2000 and lists its registered address as Düsseldorf, Germany. 2 shareholders are on record for Games Workshop Deutschland GmbH, 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 Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 11 September 2026.

Directors and officers of Games Workshop Deutschland GmbH

One of the 6 officer records shown for Games Workshop Deutschland GmbH is a current appointment, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Ross Matthews serves as Geschäftsführer (managing director). The remaining 5 records shown (Udo Frank, Criz Jamers and 3 others) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at Games Workshop Deutschland GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Data availability

Those 1 subsidiary spans Germany, Austria jurisdictions, 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.
