Shareholding structure

The shareholders of Nordzucker AG now primarily hold their stakes via the three holding companies Nordzucker Holding AG, Union Zucker Südhannover GmbH and Nordharzer Zucker AG.

The holding structure reflects the organisation of the former sugar factory companies. This reflects the bundling of the operative assets of the former independent north German sugar factories within Nordzucker AG after numerous mergers. Nordzucker Holding AG plays a special role as the largest shareholder in Nordzucker AG. There are also direct shareholders who also hold stakes in our three holding companies.

The decision in 2005 to abandon the restrictions on transfer rights opens up the company to additional investors.
