YKK (U.K.) LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 00893599, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 7 December 1966 and lists its registered address as CHESHIRE, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for YKK (U.K.) 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 22 September 2026.

Shareholders

Shareholders of YKK (U.K.) LIMITED

The largest of these is YKK HOLDING EUROPE BV, holding 100% — a majority holding — followed by YKK EUROPE LTD at 0%. 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.

Officers

28

Directors and officers of YKK (U.K.) LIMITED

Three of the 28 officer records shown for YKK (U.K.) LIMITED are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Takanori Yoshida (appointed 2021-04-01), Kohei Kawakami (appointed 2025-04-01) and Edward Buckley (appointed 2026-04-01) all serve as Director. The remaining 25 records shown (Masahiro Yoshida, Kiyoshi Taie and 19 others) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at YKK (U.K.) LIMITED sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

Group structure of YKK (U.K.) LIMITED

YKK (U.K.) LIMITED sits 2 levels below its ultimate parent, YKK CORPORATION, registered in Japan. 5 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 5 jurisdictions. The full chain up to YKK CORPORATION is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by YKK (U.K.) 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.

Data availability

Those 5 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Ireland 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.
