Croatian companies at CE Top 500 list are for the most part representatives of consumer business, energy and resources, and telecommunication industries. In total, 11 Croatian companies are represented on this year’s list. Best position, excellent 25th place among Top500, is now taken by Agrokor, which has replaced INA as the leading Croatian company.
