This level had already become an informal target for TIM SA several years earlier. Krzysztof Folta, President of the Management Board, first mentioned it in a press interview in 2014, when TIM&#8217;s revenue was below 500 million zlotys and half of it was generated by online sales.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW11747714 BCX0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW210341013 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-GB\" xml_lang=\"EN-GB\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW210341013 BCX0\">\u201cAt that time, there were many voices saying that a billion is completely unrealistic<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW210341013 BCX0\">\u201d<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW210341013 BCX0\">, recalls Krzysztof Folta.\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW210341013 BCX0\">\u201c<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW210341013 BCX0\">It turned out, however, that the change of the operating model and a consistent focus on development in the area of e-commerce, in conjunction with the systematic and effective work of the entire TIM team, allowed us to achieve this goal, more than two months before the end of the year. Since March 2021, we have closed every month at over 100 million. In September, we surpassed 120 million for the first time, and the growth of our e-commerce allows us to assume further dynamic revenue growth in the coming months. We are working intensively on the development strategy for the next years. We are going to announce it at the beginning of the next year.
