my first UK company was a 'shelf' company. It was already pre-registered with a name ( which I never changed ) and all I had to was sign a document and pay a small fee to take it over. At the time it was WAY faster than starting one from scratch. These days it's just as fast to create a company from scratch as it's all online. My second and third companies were 'from scratch'.

The situation in Denmark is the same. Back when pre-registered companies were more common, the Stakemann law firm in Copenhagen had a big share of this market, and Peter Andreas Stakemann is the founder of a large number of Danish companies. This company registry page lists him as connected to 2,000 companies, mostly as founder or initial director. I suspect the system is limiting the displayed list to 2,000 and he is actually connected to tens of thousands of companies. https://datacvr.virk.dk/data/visenhed?enhedstype=person&id=4000448343&soeg=peter%20andreas%20stakemann&type=Alle&language=da https://datacvr.virk.dk/data/visenhed?enhedstype=person&id=4...
