Canada's Best Managed Companies programme, an annual event that recognises organisations that have implemented world class business practices and created value in innovative ways, has recognised Oppy and Fresh Direct.
It marks the fifteenth consecutive year that Oppy has been honoured as one of Canada’s Best Managed companies, with the group also named to the Best Managed Platinum Club for the ninth time, while Fresh Direct was awarded for the fifth consecutive year.
“Fifteen years is a long time to sustain the excellent results and the positive culture that earn a company this kind of recognition,” said John Anderson, chairman, president and CEO of Oppy. “I’m very proud of the whole Oppy team and the way everyone contributes day in and day out to our continued success.”
Best Managed applications are reviewed annually by an independent judging panel that evaluates how companies address various business challenges, including new technologies, globalisation, brand management, leadership, leveraging and developing core competencies, designing information systems and hiring the right talent to facilitate growth.
“Our Team is honoured to receive the Best Managed Award for the fifth year in a row,' noted Fresh Direct president and co-founder Davis Yung. 'We continue to learn and prosper from our dedication to this esteemed programme, and it shows in our ability to plan, execute, expand our capacity, and develop our capabilities.'
