This year’s ceremony took place on December 20, 2018, in Athens and 61 companies and nine groups in total were awarded prizes, all leaders of the Greek economy. The “True Leader” event, for the past eight years, recognizes and awards those companies and groups which combine four objective and measurable criteria, i.e. solid financial results, investment in human resources, leading position in the relevant business sector and a high credit rating.
ElvalHalcor is an important player in the non-ferrous metals industry, with global presence and high expertise in aluminium and copper segment. ElvalHalcor’s success is derived from its commercial export orientation, customer-focused philosophy and innovation which comes through continuous investment in research and development (R&D).
