For the sixth time, the annual study covered the 500 largest companies in the industry. The research institution Data Group Consulting analyzed their business and financial data for 2009. The goal of the ranking was a comprehensive assessment of the financial situation and management efficiency of logistics companies based on balance sheets and financial statements. The list was compiled according to an index taking into account indicators reflecting management performance, efficiency: sales dynamics, asset management, investment, sales, sales profitability, and solvency. The top ten of the ranking included four logistics companies, three freight forwarding companies, and three courier companies. TNT Express achieved the highest scores in eight out of thirteen categories, including financial liquidity and return on assets and equity. The authors of the report highlighted the company’s steady sales growth for the years 2005-2009. The company achieved these results despite the crisis that strongly affected the entire transport industry in 2008-2009. This is the third victory for TNT Express in the TOP 500 ranking, which has been conducted since 2005. The position of TNT Express on the Polish market is evidenced not only by expert studies but also by customer opinions. They have chosen TNT Express as the Logistics Operator of the Year six times.
