S & U PLC
S & U PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under 00342025, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 1 July 1938 and lists its registered address as Solihull, United Kingdom. 5 shareholders are on record for S & U PLC, 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 29 September 2026.
