Management authority at POOLE SPECSAVERS LIMITED sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

How these relationships were recorded

Immediately above POOLE SPECSAVERS LIMITED is SPECSAVERS UK HOLDINGS LIMITED, holding 66.8% as filed in POOLE SPECSAVERS LIMITED's own shareholder record with Companies House. SPECSAVERS OPTICAL SUPERSTORES 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.
