Overview

Operator Type: Land-based betting shop operator

Clayton Barker Retail Ltd is a former gambling operator whose licence from the Gambling Commission (UKGC) has been surrendered. The company behind the licence, CLAYTON BARKER RETAIL LTD, is currently in liquidation according to records from Companies House. This means the company has ceased trading and is in the process of being wound up.

The company was incorporated on 15 November 2021 and is based in Matlock. Its sole director is CLAYTON BARKER, Bryan Christopher, a UK resident. Public records also show that Mr Bryan Christopher Clayton Barker is the person with significant control, holding between 75% and 100% of the company's shares and voting rights.

Clayton Barker Retail Ltd was first licensed by the UKGC on 27 July 2022. It held a General Betting Standard licence, which permitted it to operate physical, land-based betting premises. The operator used several trading names, including BetBre Bookmakers, JS Racing, and TC Racing. The licence is no longer active as it was surrendered by the company.

During its period of operation, the UKGC didn't record any public enforcement actions against Clayton Barker Retail Ltd. However, the surrendered licence and the company's liquidation status are major indicators of operational failure.
