Poland: Another country? Another business?


Hello everybody!

To find the difference between our first country, we have also learned something more about the history, the business, the money, …  Here in Poland first of all they have the PLN. 1 euro is 4,19 PLN.
We informed ourselves about their economy. In the beginning, Poland had a centrally planned economy. But since 1989, with the fall of the communist government, Poland has been liberalising its economy and has completed the transition from a centrally planned economy to a capitalistic market economy.
In 2004, Poland became a member of the European Union. After this, Poland's economy grew fast, very fast, faster than its European neighbours.
Today, Poland is Europe's sixth-biggest economy and is considered to have one of the fastest growing economies in Central Europe. Poland has a hierarchical business culture and the managers are authoritative.
In Poland, there are three different types of business structures.
The ex-state monopoly enterprises, I don't think you need more information about these.
The second type of business structures are the foreign capital subsidiaries. These are international companies who have settled down some offices in Poland.
And the last type of business structures are the local start-up companies, these are new companies.
In Poland, the most people are working in the service sector, after that, the industry sector and the last one is the agriculture sector.


Now, Poland is also undergoing economic development, but the country still has several challenges ahead. The most important challenge is the preparation of their economy to meet the economic criteria for entry into the Eurozone.

Greetings from Poland!

Lanneer Wout.
