Home Hardware Holds ‘Canada’s Best Managed Companies’ Status for Second Consecutive Year
St. Jacobs, ON, April 2, 2014 – Home Hardware Stores Limited is proud to be named one of Canada's Best Managed Companies for the second year in a row. Having initially received the designation in 2012, the company successfully re-qualified and retained its status for 2013.
The designation comes during an important time, as Home Hardware celebrates its 50th anniversary as a Canadian-owned and Canadian-operated business from coast to coast to coast this year.
The Canada’s Best Managed Companies designation recognizes private Canadian companies that have implemented world-class business practices and created value in innovative ways. Applications are reviewed by an independent judging panel that evaluates how companies address various business challenges, including new technologies, brand management and leadership.
Home Hardware continues to demonstrate the importance of private companies to the Canadian economy. Since 1964, Home has grown from 122 independent hardware Dealers-Owners, to a family that now includes close to 1,100 stores, over 20,000 employees across Canada and more than $5.4 billion in annual retail sales.
