Number of new firms growing slower

As many as 343,000 companies were registered last year, the Polish Radio reported citing data released by the General Economic Information Center (COIG). The number of new entities was 10,000 lower than in 2013 and the decline was caused by “the improvement on the labor market,” the CEO of the COIG Jarosław Nawrotek pointed out. As much as 34 percent of the new companies were established in the Mazowieckie voivodship, 12 percent in Wielkopolskie and 9 percent in Silesia.
