Target country for your translation? I´m afraid it´s impossible to choose one answer from the serveral possibilities available without knowing the target country for your translation.

looks like it's part of the company's name

In Spain, companies that have only one shareholder are obliged to say so right there in their names: e.g. Patatalia, Sociedad Anónima Unipersonal (Patatalia, S.A.U.) or Estampita, Sociedad Limitada Unipersona (Estampita, S.L.U.).
I've never seen it written out like that ("de carácter unipersonal") but I believe that's what's going on.

If my theory is correct, then the term should not be translated.

I think that this is the way to go.

John is right, in Spain it forms part of the company's name.

A sole proprietorship, or simply proprietorship (British English: sole trade) is a type of business entity which legally has no separate existence from its owner. Hence, the limitations of liability enjoyed by a corporation and limited liability partnerships do not apply to sole proprietors.

neutral John Rynne : Thanks for the agreement, though I'm not sure these companies lose the protection of limited liability.

Thanks John! Should have acknowledged Wikipedia as a source, though that does not mean it is right, of course.
