This applies to our B2B customers, looking for support in spare parts selection and delivery, as well as to our suppliers, whose products are in our product range. Everyone, who is somehow connected with Inter Cars is treated by us as a partner, which means transparency and professional approach. This way we are authentic in what we do. Presence in this year's rank is an acknowledgement of our efforts – said Piotr Zamora, Member of the Management Board of Inter Cars SA.

Companies which are included in the index are a subject of a three-stage verification performed by the WSE and the Polish Association of Listed Companies, regarding performance of proper communication with the market, using current and interim reports and their websites. The third condition is socially responsible behaviour towards the environment, society and employees, which is analysed on the basis of a survey verified by an auditor of the project - Deloitte Company.
