An Einheits-GmbH & Co. KG is a special form of GmbH & Co. KG in which the limited partnership (KG) and its general partner GmbH form an economic unit. In this case, the KG is often the sole shareholder of the general partner GmbH. This means that the KG both controls its general partner and conducts the business.
