LIFETIME BRANDS EUROPE LIMITED
Company number 03411690 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Lifetime Brands Europe Limited is a mature, compliant, but highly dependent subsidiary operating as the European arm of a US-based global housewares group. While it exhibits excellent administrative health and a long track record of survival, its extremely thin share capital and 75%+ ownership by parent entities indicate it relies entirely on group support for its financial circulation. The primary risk to its health is not operational failure, but financial contagion from its parent company.
