SANFORD LIMITED
SANFORD LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in New Zealand under 9429000010856, and its current status with New Zealand Companies Office is active. The company was incorporated on 1 February 1904 and lists its registered address as Auckland 1010, New Zealand. 5 shareholders are on record for SANFORD 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 New Zealand Companies Office and was last updated on 22 September 2026.

Shareholders of SANFORD LIMITED
Five shareholders are currently on record for SANFORD LIMITED, reflecting the share register maintained under section 87 of the Companies Act 1993 rather than a public filing. The largest of these is MASFEN SECURITIES LIMITED, holding 11.5% — the largest recorded stake — followed by MARUHA NICHIRO CORPORATION at 7.4%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes. Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Those 15 subsidiaries span New Zealand, Australia 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. Four of the 15 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
