01 / Behind the name

Who owns Cawston Press?

Private · independent drinks company with disclosed minority investment [1]

  1. 01
    Named soft drinks business / brand-rights holder

    Cawston Press Ltd [1]

    As reported · 12 Oct 2026

The PSC register names Stephen Edward Unwin, Mark Richard Palmer and William Bruce Kendall for significant influence/control, without numerical equity bands. Those disclosures are not converted into shareholdings. Princes Group's 2025 report records an indirect 8% ordinary-share and voting interest at 31 December 2025; that is a minority investment, not ownership of all Cawston. Later filings do not establish a new percentage without reviewing their contents. Cawston Vale is a former legal name. [1][2][3][4]
