Nightingale Named Canada's Top 50 Best Managed Companies

03/08/2018

Nightingale has been recognized as one of Canada’s Top 50 Best Managed Companies (BMC) for outstanding overall business performance and growth. Now in its 25th year, Canada’s BMC is the country’s leading business awards program.

Compiled by Deloitte in partnership with Maclean's magazine, this national business awards program recognizes Canadian-owned companies that demonstrate strong ethics, strategy, and commitment to achieve continuous growth. Each year, hundreds of ambitious companies undergo a rigorous application process, but only the best are awarded this prestigious designation.

"Being amongst the best in class requires more than financial performance," said Lorrie King, Partner, Deloitte and Co-Leader, Canada's Best Managed Program. "Achieving sustained growth and strong overall business performance is the result of the combined efforts and commitment of the entire organization."

For 90 years, Nightingale has been advocating equality in the workplace—whether it's age, gender, race, or disabilities. "The most important attribute of a successful company is [the] people. We're grateful to have such a talented, diverse team who all work together towards the same goal," said Edward Breen, President.

With health and wellness as one of Nightingale's guiding principles, they aim to enhance the user's experiences to live and work comfortably with a product that's environmentally friendly and extremely durable. "Last year at NeoCon, we partnered up with the Urban Beehive Project and used our showroom as a platform to highlight the importance of bees in sustainability and food security," said Breen. "Our company has always honored the environment by carefully reducing our carbon footprint during production. We also care about the rights and beliefs of our people, customers, and suppliers.”

Nightingale will be attending the 2018 Canada's BMC awards gala on April 11th in Toronto, ON. The gala will also be accompanied by a panel discussion which will address the major business concerns that are key to helping current leaders to be successful and thrive in their respective industries.
