IVA Schmetz GmbH
IVA Schmetz GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 5177 Arnsberg, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. The company was incorporated on 3 June 1999 and lists its registered address as Menden, Germany. 1 shareholder is on record for IVA Schmetz 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 3 October 2026.

Shareholders
1
One shareholder is currently on record for IVA Schmetz GmbH, held on the Gesellschafterliste (shareholder list), filed under §40 of the GmbHG.

Officers
5
The Geschäftsführer (managing director) of IVA Schmetz GmbH currently on record is Thomas Wülfing; five officers are currently on record for IVA Schmetz GmbH, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register).
The register reports 6 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at IVA Schmetz 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.
Group Structure
IVA Schmetz GmbH sits 2 levels below its ultimate parent, Shanghai Qizhi Information Technology Co.ltd, registered in China. 2 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 2 jurisdictions. Immediately above IVA Schmetz GmbH is Qizhi GmbH, holding 100% as filed in IVA Schmetz GmbH's own shareholder record with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Shanghai Qizhi Information Technology Co.ltd sits further up the chain, a link derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions rather than stated in a single document. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 2 subsidiaries span Germany, Norway jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. One of the 2 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
