Immediately above Maschinenfabrik Niehoff GmbH & Co KG is Walter und Elfriede Niehoff Stiftung, holding 63.1% as filed in Maschinenfabrik Niehoff GmbH & Co KG's own shareholder record with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). 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 7 subsidiaries span Germany, Sweden, United States, China, Czechia, India, and 1 more 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 7 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
