For the 21st consecutive year the Kriska Transportation Company (KTG) has been recognized for overall business performance and sustained growth with the prestigious Canada’s Best Managed Companies designation. The 2021 Best Managed program award winners are amongst the best-in-class of Canadian-owned and managed companies with revenues over $25 million demonstrating leadership in the areas of strategy, capabilities and innovation, culture and commitment, and financials to achieve sustainable growth.
KTG has continued to grow this past year despite the challenges of the global pandemic. Our operating companies continue to provide award-winning service and remain some of the safest carriers in Canada. Our dedication to constant improvement and investment in people, technology, and the acquisition of proven companies continues to be a winning strategy.
“The past year has posed numerous challenges for Canadian businesses and has touched everyone in some form or another—including this year’s Best Managed winners,” Kari Lockhart, Partner, Deloitte Private and Co-Leader, Canada’s Best Managed Companies program. “They should be extremely proud of this designation and use it as a catalyst to continue the work they do each day. Their unwavering commitment to their people and their adaptability amid a year of turmoil has led them to this achievement, and it mustn’t go unnoticed.”
Applicants are evaluated by an independent judging panel comprised of representatives from program sponsors in addition to special guest judges. 2021 Best Managed companies share commonalities that include (but are not limited to) enabling a remote workforce, making employee health a top priority, acting with an increased sense of purpose and social responsibility and a significantly heightened focus on cash flow.
“It’s with great pleasure that we accept this award for the 21st year.” said KTG, CFO, Pierre Carrier “This award reminds us every day that we need to keep innovating and growing our business, for our employees and our community. We wish to thank all our employees for the effort that they make to keep us one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies.”
