Filter by Molly-Mae is registered at Liverpool’s Royal Liver Building while the influencer is now the company’s sole director.
The move comes after the businessman’s Catalyst Global, which he co-founded, entered liquidation in September.
Documents filed with Companies House show the company owed money to a number of celebrities when it collapsed.
They include former TOWIE star Mark Wright’s fitness app Train Wright which was owed more than £20,000 as well as Keith Lemon’s YMS Apparel which was owed over £2,400.
Catalyst Global had previously partnered with Tom Daley to launch his Made With Love knitwear brand.
Overall, 79 individuals and companies were owed more than £548,000 when Catalyst Global entered liquidation.
