Opendatabot, an established service that monitors company registration details and the court register in Ukraine, has published its “Best Enterprises of Ukraine” index for 2024. The rating includes the largest businesses by revenues with an impeccable business reputation, a designation given to the top 10 in each category.

In compiling the index for 2024, Opendatabot analysed both the financial reports for 2023 and business reputation of companies. In particular, sanctioned entities or businesses with owners from Russia were excluded from the list.

Across four categories of the index, nine Metinvest Group enterprises featured in the top 10:

1. Zaporizhstal (no. 1), Kamet Steel (no. 2) and Zaporizhia Coke (no. 9) in the “Processing industry” category.

2. Pokrovske Coal (no. 3), Northern GOK (no. 6), Sviato-Varvarynska Beneficiation Factory (no. 9) and Central GOK (no. 10) in the “Mining industry” category.

3. Metinvest-SMC (no. 10) in the “Wholesale” category.

4. Metinvest Holding (no. 2), the Group’s management company, in the “Professional, scientific and technical activity” category.

Commenting on the news, Oleksiy IVAKIN, founder of Opendatabot, said: “Based on the financial statements and reputation of companies, the Opendatabot index provides a complete picture of what happened to Ukrainian business in 2023.”

The Opendatabot index is an analytical tool that allows the current state and geography of Ukrainian business to be assessed. It is based on information from state registers, Opendatabot databases, company financial reports, sources covering connections to Russia, sanctions lists and other analytical tools.
