Garmin Ltd.
Garmin Ltd. is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Switzerland under CHE115417272, and its current status with Zefix — Swiss Central Business Names Index is active. The company was incorporated on 22 February 2008 and lists its registered address as Schaffhausen, Switzerland. 5 shareholders are on record for Garmin Ltd., 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 Zefix — Swiss Central Business Names Index and was last updated on 28 September 2026.

Shareholders
5
Five shareholders are currently on record for Garmin Ltd., reflecting the Aktienbuch (share register) maintained under Article 686 of the Swiss Code of Obligations rather than a public filing.
The largest of these is Vanguard Group Inc, holding 21.3% — the largest recorded stake — followed by iShares Trust-iShares Core S&P 500 ETF at 2.3%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes.
Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Officers
5
The Chief Executive Officer of Garmin Ltd. currently on record is Albert Clifton Pemble; five officers are currently on record for Garmin Ltd., filed with Zefix — Swiss Central Business Names Index.
The register reports 24 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at Garmin Ltd. 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.
Group Structure
Garmin Ltd. has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 18 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 10 jurisdictions. 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 18 subsidiaries span Switzerland, United States, Indonesia, South Africa, Finland, Mexico, and 4 more 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. One of the 18 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
