Default Split a number in a cell into parts


I have a number in Cell A1.
The number is 55658764422543

the number is generated by hand typing it, reading it from a barcode or
RFID tag.

The first 4 digits (5565) is the product serial no
The next 3 (876) is the store the product was sent to
The next 5 (44225) detail the components it took to make the product
The last 2 (43) are the colour of the product.

I want to be able to seperate the setcions of the number, i.e. first 4
digits into B1, then 3 digits into C1, then 5 digits into D1 then
finally 2 digits into E1.

I will use a VLookup then to reference what the components mean.

Can someone help me with the formula's that need to be entered into B1,
C1, D1 & E1 in order to split the number.

Thanks in advance

Okanem
