It's about the private family owned businesses. They are mostly german and would appear in the top 500 if they would be publicly traded.

I looked it up. Most of the biggest 100% family owned businesses are indeed german and they would definitely be in the top 500 of companies.

I couldn't find a list of private family companies. Just look at the percentage of hold shares by the families. Those with 100% family hold shares are mostly german like Schwarz, Aldi and Bosch.
