Registered in the Trade Register
Explanation:
There's always been some controversy about "Registro Mercantil". Even so, many of us agree that it should be translated as "Trade Register/Registry", which is how I've been translating it for years, even when I worked in a North American multinational. In any case, here are some references:

agree  Natalia Pedrosa (X): Agree Margaret. ;)
58 mins
  -> Gracias, Natalia. Saludos!

agree  Richard Boulter: Perhaps 'listed' in the trade register/registry, to avoid the repetitiveness?
1 hr
  -> Thanks, Richard. Perhaps.

agree  Jenni Lukac (X): I agree with Richard's comment.
1 hr
  -> Thanks, Jenni. Saludos!

agree  Carolina Brito
1 hr
  -> Thanks, britos.

neutral  Hermeneutica: Because of the "register[ed]" repetition. PArt of the translator's task is to produce a text that is not only accurate, correct and idiomatic, but also readable. There is no need for the repetition in this case. 33 years' experience says so ...
1 day 1 hr
  -> Even so, that's what it means. Sometimes, being semi-repetitive is necessary for the sentence to make sense.

Explanation:
it's not necessary to mention the registry unless the text states the town or city where it is located.
