For the second year in a row, Kadme has made it into the very selective list of Norwegian companies that can be called “Gaselle Bedrift”.
This year, the list produced by the Norwegian business magasine Dagens Næringsliv and by Dun & Bradstreet, included only 3650 companies. To be considered a “gaselle”, the company must have, in the previous 4 years: 1) at least one million NOK revenue per year; 2) delivered approved balance accounts; 3) at least doubled the revenue; 4) a positive result every year; 5) increased the revenue each year. |
