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. |
