WHAT IS THE PROFIT 500?

To mark the 25th anniversary of the Canada's Fastest-Growing Companies program, we're expanding to celebrate and reward 500 businesses—making the PROFIT 500 by far and away Canada's largest annual celebration of entrepreneurial achievement. Ranking Canada's Fastest-Growing Companies by five-year revenue growth—nationally, regionally and by industry—the PROFIT 500 program gives entrepreneurs and their businesses the recognition they deserve for their achievements and contributions to Canada! Your business is real contender if its sales have grown by just 50% or more over the past five years.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENTS!

The PROFIT 500 isn't just bigger, it's better for your business:

  • Additional rankings by industry and location
  • Revenue will be published as a range* (e.g., $5-10 million)
  • Profits will not be disclosed
  • Bonus recognition for top 200 companies

* Upon request by private companies
