Volkswagen Slovakia<\/em> has topped the ranking of Slovakia\u2019s largest companies by revenue for the second consecutive year, according to data from the Finstat<\/em> service.<\/p>\n

Volkswagen Slovakia\u2019s<\/em> revenue exceeded \u20ac12 billion in 2025. Kia Slovakia<\/em> ranked second, although its revenue was almost \u20ac5 billion lower. The automotive industry remains the most prominent sector in the ranking overall: nine companies involved in vehicle and component manufacturing made it into the top 50. Their combined revenue reached \u20ac28.8 billion, accounting for approximately 39% of the total revenue generated by the country\u2019s largest companies.<\/p>\n

Energy and mining ranked as the second-largest sector, with five companies generating a combined revenue of around \u20ac9.5 billion. The ranking also includes a significant number of companies from the chemical and plastics industries, wholesale trade and the financial sector.<\/p>\n

In total, Slovakia\u2019s 50 largest companies generated more than \u20ac73.9 billion in revenue in 2025, with almost 44% of that amount coming from the top five. Medical insurance companies were excluded from the ranking because their revenues are primarily generated through mandatory public health insurance and are therefore not directly comparable with the revenues of commercial businesses.<\/p>\n

The ranking is based on the latest available annual reports from the companies, so 2025 figures may still be unavailable for some businesses. For example, Tesco Stores SR\u2019s<\/em> financial year ends in February, while some companies have an extended deadline for filing their tax returns until September 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
