Tieto Enator edit

TV 4, Åhlens, ESAB, Bure Equity and Biocore is not very big companies and should be at "minor companies" Tieto Enator by the way is in the forbes 2000 and should be att companies, atleast not in "minor companies".

Minor, Major edit

To this article look the same way as the other company per country articles, I'll remove the minor and major categories. In addition I think it has the benefit of removing the unavoidable ambiguity of where the limit between major and minor goes. --Denoir 21:53, 11 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

IKEA dutch? edit

How is IKEA a dutch company when the swedish founder Ingvar Kamprad still owns it all via various foundations?!??

As a result of his ownership, Forbes have many times ranked Ingvar Kamprad as the worlds richest man, even over Bill Gates.


ANSWER: Because IKEA is owned by a Dutch Charity (which is controlled by Ingvar Kamprad). For Tax reasons obviously.

headquarters are also in the Netherlands, and almost all the international shipping management is in the Netherlands. Markthemac (talk) 20:21, 15 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
