Overview

Gambling Connection: GFB RACING LIMITED held a UK Gambling Commission licence under the operator name GFB Racing Limited, with the licence first granted in June 2010. That licence was subsequently surrendered, and the company has since been dissolved.

GFB RACING LIMITED was a private limited company incorporated on 26 March 2010 in Hale, Cheshire. The company is now dissolved, meaning it no longer exists as a legal entity and ceased trading prior to being struck off. It had a standard corporate structure for a small operator, with a single director and sole individual ownership throughout its existence.

Despite its dissolution, the company's score of 72 out of 100 (grade B) reflects positively on several factors built up during its active years: over 15 years since incorporation, a clean compliance record, UK-resident directorship, and transparent individual ownership. The status score is zero due to the dissolved status, which appropriately drags down what would otherwise be a higher-rated profile.

Governance

The company had a single director throughout its existence, a UK-resident individual. Ownership was concentrated with one individual holding between 75% and 100% of shares and voting rights, with full rights to appoint and remove directors. This is a straightforward, single-person controlled structure with no corporate or offshore ownership.
