The Polish book dealer stormed into the number one spot in the annual Deloitte rankings after revenues grew by 3,542% over the last five years. Second place was taken by a Hungarian software producer Mimoza, whose sales growth amounted to 1,924%. In order to earn a place in the rankings companies had to be active for at least five years and have revenues for the first analyzed year not lower than R 50,000. Deloitte also decided to introduce a category for new companies, the so-called Rising Stars, in which another Polish firm, Travelplanet, an IT tourist services distributor, enjoyed second position. Over the last three years its revenues increased by 1,050%. (Poland A.M.)
