MONARCH RE-QUALIFIES AS ONE OF
CANADA’S 50 BEST MANAGED COMPANIES

Monarch Industries was first recognized as one of Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies in 1995 and now for the eighth consecutive year has re-qualified for this prestigious award. This honor has been awarded in a national competition sponsored by Deloitte & Touche, CIBC, Queen’s School of Business and the National Post.

The 50 Best program was created in 1993 to pay tribute to companies that were achieving success despite the harsh economic conditions of the early ‘90s yet received little or no public recognition.

Today, the 50 Best logo has come to symbolize Canadian success - companies that are growing rapidly and excelling in the global marketplace; companies that know how to win and create value in innovative ways; companies that are evolving, yet staying focused on their core vision.

Since 1935, Monarch Industries has been a fully integrated manufacturer of pumps, cement mixers, hydraulic cylinders and custom metal castings. With a centrally located corporate office in Winnipeg, Canada as well as branch warehouses and an extensive parts and service network throughout North America, Monarch has positioned itself to service all the needs of its customers.
