Talbot Marketing (asi/341500) is once again a winner.

The London, ON-based distributor has been named for the second time as a Gold Standard winner on Deloitte’s list of Best Managed Companies in Canada. Talbot went through a rigorous application and audit process to be recognized as an enterprise that “demonstrates strategy, capability and commitment to achieve sustainable growth,” according to the distributor.

“This year’s Best Managed winners displayed courage, resourcefulness and creativity as they explored new avenues for advancement,” said Lorrie King, a partner in Deloitte Private Audit & Advisory and co-leader of the Canada’s Best Managed program. “We’re extremely proud to recognize their impressive achievements in such a rapidly changing business world. Their successes demonstrate the importance of strong leadership and forethought in driving long-term growth.”

Talbot also received the Best Managed designation in 2016. Since 1993, Deloitte’s program has recognized those companies in Canada known for world-class business practices and innovation. The full list of 2022 Gold Standard companies is here.

“We’d like to thank all of our customers, sales partners and dedicated staff for their commitment to Talbot,” said the company in the statement.
