Classification: Major shareholders only. Companies House records no persons with significant control for ZOO Digital Group Plc, noting since 1 March 2019 that it has reasonable cause to believe there is no registrable person or registrable relevant legal entity, consistent with a public company subject to transparency disclosure rules rather than the private-company PSC regime.
