What the registered activity means
“Activities of head offices” is the registered description of a company whose work is ownership and administration rather than trading. The company holds business interests; the paperwork that goes with holding them is prepared, filed and answered from Swiney.
In practice that means correspondence, registers and agreements rather than stock, orders and deliveries. When a question arrives about an interest the company holds, it is answered from the record.
Where the company sits
The registered office at Swiney, Lybster is the address at which the company may properly be written to. It is the only address the company publishes, and it is the address to use for anything formal — notices, enquiries and account paperwork alike.
What this company is not
It is worth being plain about the boundaries, because a head office company is easy to mistake for a trading one.
- It does not sell to the general public and keeps no retail counter.
- It does not hold itself out as offering professional advice.
- It publishes no figures on this website; anything of that kind belongs on a signed document, not a web page.
- It confirms nothing informally. A statement about this company is reliable when it has been given in writing by the company.
