KG (acquisition and break-up), and Schwarz Produktion's own register file records the legal-form change GmbH & Co. KG to Stiftung & Co. KG on 24/06/2021; MEG's site calls the company the beverage and recycling network of Schwarz Produktion. North Data still lists PHO G GmbH & Co. KG (Amtsgericht Stendal HRA 2862) as a shareholder in filings up to 2025, so the direct shareholder chain between PHO G and Schwarz Produktion is not evidenced. | | |

| 47 | + | MEG is the abbreviation of Mitteldeutsche Erfrischungsgetränke, and packs in circulation still print the earlier names: the register carried "Mitteldeutsche Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH & Co. KG Handels- und Verwaltungsgesellschaft" until 27 January 2009 and "Mitteldeutsche Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH & Co. KG" until the change to the present name on 14 October 2019.[^northdata-meg] The company's own site describes MEG as the beverage and recycling network of Schwarz Produktion, the production arm of the Schwarz group behind Lidl and Kaufland,[^meg-home] and North Data records a register event of 7 July 2020 pairing MEG with Schwarz Produktion GmbH & Co. KG, which changed its legal form to Stiftung & Co. KG on 24 June 2021.[^northdata-meg][^northdata-schwarz] The chain between the two is not fully documented: North Data lists PHO G GmbH & Co. KG (Amtsgericht Stendal HRA 2862) as a shareholder in filings up to 2025 and as the parent that consolidated MEG's accounts for the year to 29 February 2020, while GLEIF files no parent record at all, giving instead a reporting exception whose reason is that the accounting consolidation parent has no LEI.[^gleif-parent] | |
