Caroline International Ltd.

From 1988 until its dissolution in 2008, this was the name of a UK-based distribution company originally founded by Richard Branson in 1972. However, the launch of the Caroline International division of Universal Music Group in 2013 has apparently resulted in the inclusion of "Caroline International Ltd." on recent releases, despite there being no verifiable, active company by that name.

1972: incorporated as Caroline Records (Export) Limited; 1979: became Caroline Export Limited; 1980: became Caroline Exports Limited; 1988: became Caroline International Ltd.; July 2008: dissolved.
