'Significant Acknowledgment'

Chairman of the board and CEO of Maxima Grupė, Dalius Misiūnas, said, “For us, this award is [a] significant acknowledgment, keeping in mind that we are investing and expanding in [a] much bigger market than Lithuania. Positive assessment from Polish colleagues motivates us to continue developing business in this country.
