Five years ago in 2008,  shares in Azoty Tarnów were first floated on the Warsaw Stock Exchange . At the time, the global economy was deep in crisis. However,  investors had faith in the company and saw in it a worthwhile  venture  . 

For Azoty, it was a decisive moment.

We did not become listed on the Stock Exchange by chance. We knew it was only through the capital markets that we would have an opportunity to pursue our long-term growth strategy – a strategy based on a bold vision of the future of the Polish chemicals industry.

Over the past five years we have witnessed the growth of our company, the formation of a a modern capital group  and the consolidation of the chemicals industry. We have always known this was the only way to attain a competitive position and gain the strength required to compete effectively on global markets. We were also aware that this was the only means to to guarantee us independence and security. 

We have been proven correct. The consolidation of the Polish chemistry has not been plain sailing, but we have made it. In one great organisation  – Grupa Azoty – we have brought together all that we Poles have done best t in the industry. We are among the world leaders.  

We are proud of what we have achieved, but we have no intention of resting on our laurels. We treat the last year as just the beginning of our efforts to forge a new brand under which  we intend to sell our products and services. We are confident that we will not betray the trust of our customers, employees and those local communities affected by our operations, just as we have not disappointed  our investors and shareholders.
