Popis: | The aim of this article is to assess the financial health of selected enterprises in the agri-food sector. The study of the financial condition of enterprises, including the food industry is a complex issue. A thorough and comprehensive analysis requires the consideration of numerous aspects of a companys operation. Therefore, a wide range of financial indicators is used, which enables the measurement of selected components of financial condition. The research used data for enterprises operating in the agri-food sector (from various branches). The selection of enterprises for the research was purposeful and was based on the ranking of enterprises published in the EMIS database. The financial statements published in the EMIS database for the year 2021 were used for the study. The TOPSIS method was used to assess the development of the enterprises, which made it possible to determine the financial condition of the studied enterprises. It was shown that the best financial condition was characterised by enterprises that based their activities on the production of margarine and similar edible fats, meat processing, excluding poultry meat, and the processing of milk and cheese products. |
