Shareholders

Shareholders of RURAL LIVESTOCK LIMITED

Five shareholders are currently on record for RURAL LIVESTOCK LIMITED, reflecting the share register maintained under section 87 of the Companies Act 1993 rather than a public filing. The largest of these is Robert Alexander REID, holding 5.4% — the largest recorded stake — followed by Joanne FOWLER at 1.4%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes. 1 shareholder shown is a company, so the ownership chain continues above this level for that holding; the other 4 are recorded as direct individual holders, though the record carries no UBO/PSC flag confirming beneficial-owner status.

Data availability

The register reports 30 shareholders in total, though only the top 5 by holding are shown in this view.

Group Structure

Group structure of RURAL LIVESTOCK LIMITED

RURAL LIVESTOCK LIMITED has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 1 subsidiary recorded beneath it across 1 jurisdiction. 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.

  • NZ FARMERS LIVESTOCK LIMITED (New Zealand)

Data availability

Those 1 subsidiary spans New Zealand 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. One of the 1 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
