Among the 200 most profitable compa-
nies, holding the 131st place, is FOD Sko-
pje, which generated profit of 833 thou-
sand euros last year, but still it is less than
a year earlier when the company‘s profit
was 1.3 million euros. Total revenues of
FOD amounted to 6.7 million euros, and
the number of employees was 272.

FOD Bitola grew from a central work-
station that operated within REK „Bitola“
into a modern and contemporary company
which invests its profit in the moderniza-
tion of the company and its restructur-
ing. According to statements made in the
media, FOD officials say that the opinion
according to which ELEM stands behind
their results is not true. Although they
work for the large power plants and mines
in the country, they emphasize that they
are a private company competing to find
business on the market, spending only
what they earn.

Of the other companies that make up
the segment of the manufacture of ma-
chinery and equipment, MZT „Pumps“,
for example, had total revenues of 56.5
million denars during the first half of the
year, which is an increase of 3.3 percent
