Burda Service-Handel-Märkte GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 700691 Freiburg, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. Its registered address on file is Offenburg, Germany. 1 shareholder is on record for Burda Service-Handel-Märkte GmbH, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 5 October 2026.

Officers

5

Four of the 5 officer records shown for Burda Service-Handel-Märkte GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Elisabeth Carola Varn (appointed 2021-01-05) and Kerstin Gajewi both serve as Geschäftsführer (managing director); Florian Buck (appointed 2021-01-05) and Marco Burmester both serve as Officer. The remaining 1 record shown (Frank-Jörg Ohlhorst) is a former appointment that has since been resigned.

The register reports 11 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at Burda Service-Handel-Märkte GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
