Industry news

Sikora ranks in top 100 Sikora AG has again ranked among Germany’s 100 fastest growing medi- um-sized companies, and improved from place 61 to 18. This is the result of a study carried out by the management consultancy Munich Strategy Group. Dr Christian Frank, CEO of Sikora, com- mented, “I am delighted that we are among the ‘Top 100’ again this year. The award once again shows that we belong to the elite of the German medium- sized companies. We set significant trends and play a leading role in the field of innovative measuring, control, inspection and sorting technologies. I am particularly proud that we worked our way up from rank 61 to rank 18. My special thanks go to our colleagues in Bremen as well as in our subsidiaries around the world. Their achievement made this result possible.

“By focusing on technical innovations as well as expanding our global sales and service network and the simultaneous concentration of research, development and production at our location in Bremen, we create the conditions for future, constant growth.” More than 4,000 companies, from all industries, with an annual turnover

between tenmillion andonebillion euros were evaluated by the Munich Strategy Group. The Top 100 companies were determined on the basis of their long- term growth and profitability. The basis for selection is the performance of the companies during the last five years. Sikora AG www.sikora.net
