Fiscal year 2015
31.12.2015In 2015, the sum of taxes paid by LPP in Poland exceeded PLN 658 m. Such a result was possible thanks to the efforts and commitment that we put into the development of the company not only in Poland, but also abroad.
In 2015, LPP launched its operations on new foreign markets. We started selling our products in Egypt and Qatar, among others. Such activities translated into the Company’s overall growth, which, in turn, contributed to the payment of higher taxes in Poland. Owing to that, LPP has provided a real support to the domestic economy.
We are committed to continuous development and do not plan to slow down. Our further growth will allow the taxes paid by LPP to the Polish state budget even higher in the coming years.
