Leading construction sector company enjoys a revival

Gorzów-based company Marciniak, which has the construction of Centrum Targowek and the border crossing in Gubinek among its achievements, expects to close 2003 with a profit of zł. 1 million after ending the last two years in the red, and it also plans to acquire an investor. The company's turnover should total zł. 160 million this year. "Last year was the worst in our history, as our turnover dropped by 40%. However, in 2003 we can feel a revival on the market and a growing interest in our offer," said company president Maciej Mosiej. However, the chairman of the Polish Chamber of the Construction Sector (PIP-HB) Stefan Nawrocki said that, "Such an evaluation of the market can only be attributed to personal experiences rather than the general situation in the sector." Mosiej assured that the firm has already acquired contracts worth zł. 140 million and expects to win further orders worth zł. 20 million. (Puls Biznesu, p. 7) M.M.
