    As reported · 27 Sept 2026

Registered significant control

McWin Foodservice Fund and TriSpan's Rising Stars Programme jointly secured a co-control majority investment in FI Holdings Limited. The majority is shared: no individual majority, exact split or 100% acquisition is established. The announcement says Piper is exiting. TriSpan's portfolio corroborates the relationship; this is a holding-company investment rather than a separately quantified direct stake in Flat Iron Steak Limited. These are selected investor disclosures, not a complete beneficial-owner register. Retained registered control: Fi Holdings Ltd: Ownership of shares – 75% or more (register checked 2026-09-30). These are statutory control categories, not exact shareholdings. They must not be added to overlapping sponsor interests. [6][7][4]
