North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has seen a strong recovery in its private sector, according to a report on the performance of the region's top 100 private enterprises in 2022.

To be included in the top 100 of the year, each applicant company's annual revenues were requested to surpass 2 billion yuan at least. Those listed companies were excluded from the ranking because they couldn't release revenues until their annual report gets published by the end of April 2023.
