Swafing GmbH
Registration details
Company overview
Swafing GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 208964 Osnabrück, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. Its registered address on file is Nordhorn, Germany. 1 shareholder is on record for Swafing 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 26 October 2026.

Registry notes and limitations
Three of the 4 officer records shown for Swafing GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Hans-Gerd Swafing serves as Geschäftsführer (managing director); Bernd Wegbünder (appointed 2014-12-09) and Nico Alferink (appointed 2017-04-12) both serve as Officer. The record also shows 1 earlier, since-resigned appointment held by an officer who currently serves.
Management authority at Swafing 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
Minerva Verwaltung UG (haftungsbeschränkt) & Co. KG
Germany
How these relationships were recorded
Swafing GmbH sits 1 level below its ultimate parent, Minerva Verwaltung UG (haftungsbeschränkt) & Co. KG, registered in Germany. 1 subsidiary is recorded beneath it, across 1 jurisdiction. The full chain up to Minerva Verwaltung UG (haftungsbeschränkt) & Co. KG is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by Swafing GmbH's own shareholder record. 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 1 subsidiary spans Germany jurisdiction, 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.
