美国季刊杂志《家族企业》(Family Business)在其2003年第一期(冬季版)上公布了全球最大200家家族企业的排行榜(The world's largest family businesses,the 200 biggest family firms)。该杂志自2000年以来曾每年推出年销售额超过10亿美元的各国家族企业名单,但这一次是首次为全世界的家族企业排座次。其中,沃尔玛、福特、三星荣登三甲。
200强美国占99席
这200家企业共来自27个国家,其中美国占了99席,其次是法国17席、德国16席。此次排名对家族企业的含义规定很广:不论何种所有制形式及管理方式,只要是某个家族在这一公司中占有重要地位,即可参加排名。所以最终的排行榜中包括上市公司、私营公司、集团公司、控股公司等多种组成形式。许多公司在其所在的行业中,甚至在所在国家的国民经济中都占有举足轻重的地位。
家族控制形式多样
在众多家族企业中,许多并非完全意义上由某个家族统治,而是靠多数股掌握着对公司的控制权。例如在排名第一的沃尔玛和排名第二的福特,沃顿家族和福特家族分别占有38%和40%的股权。而在控制着7-11便利店73%股权的排名第21位的日本ItoYokado(伊藤洋华堂)公司中,伊藤家族仅拥有15%的份额。
媒体集团家族企业多
在排名榜中的许多世界著名媒体集团都是家族企业。如雷石东家族创建的排名第18位的维亚康姆,第27位默多克家族的新闻集团,第62位考克斯家族的考克期报系,第63位Mohn家族的贝塔斯曼公司。第99位的McGraw家族的Mc Graw Hill出版公司(美国《商业周刊》的东家),第136位的《纽约时报》和第162位的《华盛顿邮报》。可能是在西方人眼中,家庭价值观能够更好地维护媒体的客观公正性。
两家族合营安利半世纪
另一家引人注目的就是排名第104位的美国安达高公司,这家就是在中国家喻户晓的安利公司的母公司。
首先这家公司自创建起就是百分之百意义上的私人企业。但最为难能可贵的是:它是由两个家族共同拥有的,不多不少各占50%的份额。“自杰·温安洛和理查·狄维士这两位高中同学1948年在美国密执安州的一个家庭地下室里创立这家卖肥皂的公司以来”,两家始终风雨同舟不离不弃,从未发生过大的原则争执,公司已发展为年销售额45亿美元、业务遍及80多个国家和地区的跨国企业。而公司的第一和第二代领导层更是顺利地实现了平稳过渡和顺利交接,子女们继承了父辈的友谊和公司的核心价值观。
名字最具特色的家族企业当属排名第52位的瑞典宜家(IKEA)公司,公司名称中的4个字母竟然是公司创始人Ingvar Kampard及他少年时生长的地方Elmtaryd Agunnaryd四个单词的首字缩写———原来有时家族企业起名字可以这么简单。
