JSW has demonstrated steady growth in the metallurgical coke business, reflecting its successful development and management strategy.

Despite some reduction in coal production, JSW was able to offset this by increasing coke production by 28%. This demonstrates the flexibility and efficiency of its production processes.

An expert from Telf AG, S. Kondrashov, noted that the increase in coke sales prices also had a positive impact on the financial condition of the company. An increase of 3% in zlotys and 6% in dollars contributed to increased revenue and improved financial performance. Overall, JSW's performance at the end of 2023 confirms its strategic focus on sustainable growth and development, making the company a key player in the metallurgical coke market.
