Overview

Gambling Connection: CORBETT BOOKMAKERS LIMITED holds an active licence from the UK Gambling Commission, making it a directly regulated gambling operator. It's in our database as a licensed entity whose corporate health consumers can assess before placing bets.

CORBETT BOOKMAKERS LIMITED has been active in the UK gambling industry for more than five decades, making it one of the older privately held bookmaking businesses still trading today. It's registered under SIC code 92000, meaning it's a direct gambling and betting operator rather than a holding or service company.

The company earns a score of 98 out of 100, graded A+. That reflects a clean compliance record, a well-structured board with UK-resident directors, transparent ownership, and the kind of corporate longevity that few businesses in any sector can match. There are no outstanding charges and filings are kept up to date.

Its family-run character is a defining feature. The business has been shaped by the same family over decades, which is uncommon at this scale and points to stable, long-term stewardship rather than the frequent ownership turnover seen in much of the industry.

Governance

The current board has two UK-resident directors. Ownership sits with a corporate parent holding 75 to 100 percent of shares, alongside two individuals with appointment rights, all disclosed under the Persons with Significant Control register.
