We are recovering our positions in Russia and other CIS countries, as well as we are developing in new markets dynamically. The restructuralization, which lasted for several years, has a convincingly good result that is why I am sure, that we will increase the turnover by at least 10% in 2017. One of “Grindeks” strengths is our staff, so as it was previous year, we are going to pay our special attention to personnel policy, developing result-oriented motivation system and strengthening the team. One of the most important decisions of Council is salary increase according to each employee’s individual performance.”
