Our turnover in 1995 was around US$1,150,000, and I am pondering the possibility of doing something similar in Hungary, and the extent to which it is possible. If there are any entrepreneurs in Hungary who are interested in doing something similar, please get in touch. There are good reasons to believe that such a venture can be successful with the right attitutude and business strategy. I ran the following advert a few months ago, but never had any replies from Hungary =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Bar code job business opportunity SKK stands for "bar code systems" in Polish.
