LAVIS AND BURKE LIMITED is a private limited company incorporated in April 1963, registered in Thornton-Cleveleys, Lancashire.

Positive Signals
- Incorporated since 1963 — over 60 years on the Companies House register

- UK-registered and UK-based
Concerns
- No current directors listed — only a secretary is currently active
- Linked operator licence surrendered — no active regulated gambling presence
- Non-gambling SIC code — classification doesn't reflect gambling activity
Overview
Gambling Connection: LAVIS AND BURKE LIMITED appears in Saferwager's database because of its historical association with a UKGC-licensed amusements operator. That operator has surrendered its licence, so the company's current regulatory exposure to gambling is limited.
LAVIS AND BURKE LIMITED has been on the Companies House register since 19 April 1963, making it one of the older corporate entities in our database with over six decades of continuous incorporation. It's registered in Thornton-Cleveleys, Lancashire, and currently holds active status.
The company's SIC code falls under "other personal service activities" (96090) rather than gambling directly, but its connection to the licensed gambling sector comes through a linked operator. That operator has since surrendered its licence, so LAVIS AND BURKE LIMITED no longer has an active footprint in the regulated gambling market.
Without a current company score on record, there's limited data to assess governance quality, but the company's longevity and active status are straightforward positives. It operates with a lean structure, reflecting its modest scale and regional base.
Governance
The company has a single current officer on record serving as secretary, with all previous directors having resigned or their tenures lapsed. There are no current directors listed on Companies House, which is an unusual governance position for an active company. Ownership sits with one individual holding significant influence or control, registered since December 2016.
Linked UKGC Operators
No UKGC licensed operators are directly linked to this company. This may indicate the company is a holding entity, service provider, or the operator link has not yet been established.
