Joel Seigel, President and CEO of Gentec International, is pleased to announce that Gentec has been named one of Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies for a fifth consecutive year.

“Our commitment to excellence fuels our drive to improve year after year,” stated Mr. Seigel. “Being recognized for a fifth year as one of Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies means we’ve been successful in that endeavour. It’s an honour we share with our retail and trade partners, who have been integral to our ongoing growth and success.”

Established in 1993, Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies is a national awards program, recognizing 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, globalization, brand management, leadership, leveraging and developing core competencies, designing information systems, and hiring the right talent to facilitate growth.

Winners of the 2011 Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies award, along with Requalified and Platinum Club members, will be honoured at the annual Best Managed gala in Toronto on March 27th.
