Dino Polska Listed Among Poland’s Top 20 Companies

Polish retailer Dino Polska has announced that it has been promoted to the WIG20 Index, which features the top 20 companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

The retailer will be listed on the WIG20 Index as a result of the annual index adjustment, which will be implemented after the 15 March session.

Its inclusion in the index comes two years after the launch of its IPO on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

'Enormous Distinction'

Chief executive of the company, Szymon Piduch, termed the achievement an "enormous distinction", and attributed it to the trust of investors, and relentless efforts made by the retailer to implement its development strategy.

"We are very happy that Polish mutual and pension funds, or indirectly millions of Polish citizens, but also retail and foreign investors, see the potential and prospects of Dino Polska S.A.," Piduch added.
