Carmaker Automobile Dacia remains the largest company in Romania in the top 500, ranking 13th and climbing one spot compared with 2017. In 2018, two companies from Romania, namely Telekom Romania Communication and Blue Air Aviation, were new-entries.
Of a total 61 companies from Romania, 44 climbed in the ranking, 14 fell, one stagnated and two were new-entries.
“The evolution of the Romanian economy was significant, based on an increase in consumption. We can see, however, that Romania is represented with ten sectors in Top 500, but if one stays focused on a few sectors, then, the recession affecting one sector will take its toll”, said Eugen Anicescu, country manager Coface Romania.
Dedeman (115th), Fildas (277th) and Altex (286th) are the three entrepreneurial businesses listed in the ranking, managing to climb spots compared with 2017.
Romania’s best represented sectors in the CEE ranking are the automotive industry, the mineral products industry and trade.
