Abstract
The period of the People's Republic of Poland is a period of domination of state ownership in the state economy. Therefore the analysis of the activity of the only private porcelain factory in Poland, operating from 1947-1994, seems to be even more interesting. The enterprise devised its individual and therefore unique way of running business (business model). The essence of this model was tightly connected with political and economic conditions prevailing in Poland for almost fifty years after the end of World War Two. Unfortunately, after political breakthrough in the late 1980s and change of economic system which followed, this model contributed to economic problems for the enterprise.
