Flanagan Foodservice is proud to announce that it has achieved Platinum status as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies. Flanagan Foodservice was initially recognized as a Best Managed Company in 2013 and has since been awarded Gold Standard and now Platinum Club Member status. Platinum Club status is awarded to companies that have maintained their Best Managed status for seven or more years and must reapply each year.
“Achieving Platinum status as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for the past seven years is very special for us because it reflects the ongoing hard work and dedication of all of our employees,” says Dan Lafrance, president of Flanagan Foodservice. “We’re so proud of the level of growth and success we’ve achieved by providing our customers with the ‘Difference You Deserve’. This distinction validates the effort and investment we’ve made in making a difference with our employees, our business partners and our community is working.”
Now in its 27th year, Canada’s Best Managed Companies is Canada’s leading business awards program. The Best Managed award recognizes Canadian-owned and managed companies with revenues over $25-million for sustained growth, financial performance, management practices, and the efforts of the entire organization. Each year, hundreds of companies undergo a rigorous application process, but only the best are awarded this prestigious designation.
Flanagan Foodservice is honoured to be recognized as a Best Managed Company. We attribute this achievement to our commitment to customer service, our warm and traditional Canadian attributes, and our company culture that empowers every person at Flanagan Foodservice to succeed.
The Best Managed program is sponsored by Deloitte Private, CIBC, Canadian Business, Smith School of Business and TMX Group.
