In conversation with Dmitry Nikitin, director general of ZAO Eurosib «We were very fortunate»

摘要

Mr Nikitin, how has your company survived the crisis? We succeeded in defending our position as one of the top ten Russian transport enterprises last year - despite a double-digit collapse in sales of up to 25% in the transport sector at the beginning of 2009. We managed to complete the year in a relatively sound financial position, thanks to our policy of ensuring stability. We also made sure to implement measures to adapt our activities to the changed operating conditions. In addition, during the economic downturn we were very fortunate to qualify for government stimulus funds, thanks to our status as one of the biggest private Russian transport companies.
