SUMITOMO ELECTRIC WIRING SYSTEMS (EUROPE) LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 02445665, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 22 November 1989 and lists its registered address as NEWCASTLE UNDER LYME, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for SUMITOMO ELECTRIC WIRING SYSTEMS (EUROPE) 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 20 October 2026.

Shareholders

The largest of these is SUMITOMO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES LTD, holding 60% — a majority holding — followed by SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS LTD at 40%.

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.

Group Structure

SUMITOMO ELECTRIC WIRING SYSTEMS (EUROPE) LIMITED sits 1 level below its ultimate parent, SUMITOMO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, LTD., registered in Japan. 12 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 11 jurisdictions. The full chain up to SUMITOMO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, LTD. is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by SUMITOMO ELECTRIC WIRING SYSTEMS (EUROPE) LIMITED's own shareholder record. 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 12 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Egypt, Czechia, Morocco, Turkey, Romania, and 5 more 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 12 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
