About this company

Shire Pharmaceuticals Limited is a UK-registered pharmaceutical company, incorporated in 1986, with recorded activities covering manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products and wholesale of pharmaceutical goods. Its registered office and associated web presence now sit within the Takeda group: the company's domain currently displays branding for Takeda UK, describing itself as headquartered in London with over 300 employees delivering medicines and vaccines. This indicates that the entity now operates as part of the wider Takeda pharmaceutical group rather than trading independently under the Shire name. The group's UK operations focus on developing and supplying medicines, vaccines and related healthcare products to patients and healthcare professionals.
