LPP’s contribution to the economy – Taxes

Fiscal year 2016

31.12.2016

In 2016, the total amount of taxes paid in Poland by LPP exceeded the result obtained in 2015. This was possible, among other things, thanks to the consistent development of the company not only domestically, but also on international markets.

The business model assuming the sale of clothes, accessories or other products that have been created on the basis of Polish know-how, also outside the country, allows us to grow in strength. Our growth, achieved, among other things, thanks to export, while paying taxes in Poland at the same time, translates into real support for the national economy.

We are planning to continue such a strategy and, consequently, we want to support the national budget on an even greater scale in the years to come, and to provide it with even greater amounts.

The table below shows taxes paid by LPP in 2016. The breakdown into the amounts resulting from individual obligations indicates specific sums which make up the total result.
