Perhaps we'd better clean up some terminology to reduce the possibility of a misunderstanding:

"Branches" would imply one trading company.
"Subsidiaries" would imply multiple companies in a hierarchal ownership structure.

My understanding is each company would need, and operate under, their own registrations.

If they were all branches of a single company, then the company's registrations would apply to all branches.
