WATES GROUP LIMITED sits 1 level below its ultimate parent, 1260 FAMILY HOLDINGS LIMITED, registered in United Kingdom. 17 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 2 jurisdictions. The full chain up to 1260 FAMILY HOLDINGS LIMITED is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by WATES GROUP LIMITED's own shareholder record.

Data availability

Those 17 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates 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 17 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
