MOTION JVCO LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 12057312, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 18 June 2019 and lists its registered address as London, United Kingdom. 5 shareholders are on record for MOTION JVCO 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 30 September 2026.

Those 2 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Canada 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 2 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
