GKN HOLDINGS LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 00066549, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 9 July 1900 and lists its registered address as Birmingham, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for GKN 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 2 October 2026.

Group Structure

GKN HOLDINGS LIMITED sits 2 levels below its ultimate parent, MELROSE INDUSTRIES PLC, registered in United Kingdom. 6 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 2 jurisdictions. Immediately above GKN HOLDINGS LIMITED is GKN LIMITED, holding 100% as filed in GKN HOLDINGS LIMITED's own shareholder record with Companies House. MELROSE INDUSTRIES PLC 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 6 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Iran 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 6 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
