SWIRE SHIPPING (NZ) LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in New Zealand under 9429030083158, and its current status with New Zealand Companies Office is active. The company was incorporated on 28 August 2013 and lists its registered address as Auckland, New Zealand. 1 shareholder is on record for SWIRE SHIPPING (NZ) 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 25 September 2026.

Shareholders of SWIRE SHIPPING (NZ) LIMITED

One shareholder is currently on record for SWIRE SHIPPING (NZ) LIMITED, reflecting the share register maintained under section 87 of the Companies Act 1993 rather than a public filing.

The remaining 1 record shown (Jonathan WOOD) is a former appointment that has since been resigned.

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.
