Earlier, 47-year-old Alexander Moshensky headed the top 25 most prominent businessmen of modern Belarus (1992-2017), compiled according to a survey of business representatives, heads of b2b companies, public business associations and business media. In 2017, the businessman became one of 26 representatives of business and public structures included in the updated Council for the Development of Entrepreneurship.
According to the calculations of the Russian edition of RBC, Savushkin Product ranks third in the post-Soviet space in the processing of raw milk. With an annual processing capacity of 600 thousand tons, the Brest company is second only to Danone (1.6 million tons in 2015) and PepsiCo (1.5 million tons). According to RBC magazine, the Russian subsidiary of Savushkin Produkt ranked first among the 15 fastest growing foreign companies in the Russian market. For the period 2014-2016, the average annual revenue growth of Savushkin Product-Moscow amounted to 52%, in 2016 the company's turnover approached $140 million.
In third place is Pavel Topuzidis, a major retailer and manufacturer of tobacco products.
The aforementioned Wargaming founder Viktor Kisly is in fourth place. The fall due to economic problems in purchasing power in the key market for Wargaming in the CIS led to a sharp reduction in revenue and profit. In 2015, while the business was still growing, Viktor Kisly diverted serious resources to buy out a 17% stake from his former partner Ivan Mikhnevich. Ivan Mikhnevich, who invests in personal projects and is engaged in political activities in Cyprus, ranked seventh in the ranking in 2018.
Another representative of the IT sector, Viktor Prokopenya, is in the 12th position in the new rating.
Oil trader Alexey Oleksin took 6th place. The founder and owner of the group of companies "A-100" Alexander Center on the 8th line. The owners of the Euroopt network, Sergey Litvin and Vladimir Vasilko, are in 9th and 10th places, respectively.

200 successful and influential businessmen of Belarus is a project of the Ezhednevnik Internet portal, which has been preparing and publishing since 2007.
The project, first of all, has an educational goal. On the one hand, it promotes recognition of the person, increasing the loyalty of the population to private business in general, on the other hand, it serves as a source of information for potential partners and investors who are going to implement projects in Belarus.
Getting into and distribution in the top 200 successful and influential businessmen of Belarus is determined by two criteria:
1. Success is the actual share of a particular person in the value of the business that belongs to him.
Ownership and share are calculated based on the data of the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Belarus (Unified Register of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs), registration authorities of other countries where the main business is located or the entrepreneur conducts business, as well as on the basis of other open sources and insider information. The cost of a business in the presence of financial indicators is calculated by traditional methods for assessing the cost (cost, income, comparable sales). Depending on the amount of financial information and its sources, it is chosen which approach is appropriate in assessing a particular business and, accordingly, the current capital of the person involved in the top 200 successful and influential businessmen in Belarus.
2. Influence - an additional criterion given by us through the specific conditions of doing business in Belarus and the impossibility at the moment to publish financial indicators.
It is based on the concept of business sustainability in the economic conditions that have developed over 25 years in the Belarusian economy. First of all, this is an assessment of the level of communication of a particular business owner with the state regulator, as well as his role (influence) in the region and the economy as a whole. A group of experts (at least 10 people), which is directly related to one of the markets whose players are represented in the top 200 (IT, finance, woodworking, mechanical engineering, food industry, etc.), determines the degree of influence of that or another person within a given period of time.
The Top 200 successful and influential businessmen in Belarus are used as a source of information on private business in Belarus not only by Belarusian companies and government agencies, but also by the European Commission, the EAEU and departments of other countries of the world.
