Misho Hristov, Georgi Serdarov, SeeNews. Full liability rests with the advertisers. Letter from the editor Strong growth potential, low production costs, obsolete infrastructure and widespread corruption – these phrases appear repeatedly on the pages of our SEE TOP 100 publication over the past ten years to describe a region that businesses find exciting and yet often frustrating. When SeeNews first published its ranking of the top companies in Southeast Europe in 2008 the region was enjoying robust growth and foreign investors were rushing to grab a slice of its lucrative markets. “Very diverse and very dynamic with a strong upward trend...Big room for growth and consolidation...luring foreign investors with high yields, a skilled labour force, flexible labour policy and low production costs...a new frontier for investment within Europe,” we said back then. “While there are still stumbling blocks in these markets in terms of infrastructure and governance issues, legislative framework and the level of political stability, Southeast Europe deserves serious attention as a region with considerable potential,” we concluded at the time. Ten years later and following a painful economic downturn which wiped out profits and much of the euphoria, economic growth in Southeast Europe is once again picking up, businesses are reaping the benefits of rising consumption, and foreign investors are returning - despite the same old problems. All these years, in our analyses, rankings, interviews and feature stories, we have been trying to answer the question what is it that makes a company in our region successful. The answers varied through the years – large-scale investments in production, fiscal prudence, energy efficiency and sustainability have been coming into sharper focus at different points in time. Looking at the top performers today, we can point to three essential features of the profile of a successful SEE-based company: access to big foreign markets - often the result of foreign ownership, integration of the full range of business-specific activities, and willingness to embrace innovations. Southeast Europe's top company in terms of total revenue this year, car maker Automobile Dacia, has them all. We pick up this thread from our flagship ranking of the biggest non-financial companies in the region and take it through the list of the leading banks and insurers, interviews with the chart toppers and analyses of the most profitable industries, weaving different success stories into the picture of facts and figures. For those of you who want the brief tour, Vazil Hudak, vice-president of the European Investment Bank, the biggest international lender to the region, sums it up: “The countries in the region are small, so they need to broaden their market, and that means they need to be able to work across borders […] To be competitive you need to invest in R&D and technology.” Nevena Krasteva Editor-in-chief 4 in millions of euro Net Net Rank Total Total Y/Y profit/ profit/ by net 2016 2015 Company name Country Industry revenue revenue change in loss loss profit/ 2016 2015 revenue 2016 2015 loss 1 1 Automobile-Dacia SA Romania Automobiles 4 619 4 290 8.07% 100.5 99.0 16 2 4 Petrol d.d.

    INTERSPORT Launches Mission to Help People Find Their Place in Sport

    INTERSPORT launches mission to help people find their place in sport Study shows that 66% of people say they still haven’t found their place in sport, with 88% saying that they don’t see themselves as athletes. Thursday 23 January 2020 - Bern, Switzerland. INTERSPORT, the world's leading sports ​ retailer, launches “Wherever You Take Training”, the first chapter of a multi-category ​ ​ brand platform to reinforce the brand’s essential place at the beating heart of local sport. Created with advertising agency WE ARE Pi, the new brand platform, “Heart of Sport”, tells ​ ​ real stories from local communities. It reminds people that wherever they take sport, INTERSPORT has the products, people, advice and enthusiasm to get there. With revenue now topping twelve billion euros, INTERSPORT’s new brand-led growth plan comes as the broader retail industry is undergoing radical change driven by changing consumer behaviour, digital transformation and competition from larger online players. “Heart of Sport” is the result of INTERSPORT’s most comprehensive piece of international ​ consumer research to date, with over 1,600 customers in the UK, Germany, and France. The key finding: Everyone needs a place in sport. The research reveals an unfortunate truth; 66% of people say they still haven’t found their place in sport, with 88% saying that they don’t see themselves as athletes. Where, how and with whom people do sport is key to getting the most out their chosen activity, from an emotional, physical and psychological point of view. From your team or training buddy, to the terrain you’re on and the equipment you use - each ingredient helps build confidence and pride, giving you more enjoyment and getting you closer to your goal(s), whatever they might be.
