Hopewell Group Named 2024 Platinum Club Winner of Canada’s Best Managed Companies.
CALGARY, AB, May 14, 2024 /CNW/ – The Hopewell Group is proud to announce its appointment as a 2024 Platinum Club winner of Canada’s Best Managed Companies – the second time the Group has received this prestigious designation.
This marks Hopewell’s eighth year being recognized as a Canada’s Best Managed Company.
“We are proud to be recognized as a Canada’s Best Managed Company for the eighth time,” says Sanders Lee, Executive Chairman of the Hopewell Group of Companies.
“Our vision is to build a platform Group of companies that offers best-in-class capabilities and capacity to partners, clients and the communities in which we work. We are honoured to be recognized for the work we do, and how we manage each of the businesses within our Group.”
The Hopewell Group consists of seven companies that operate across North America, including Hopewell Capital, Hopewell Logistics, Hopewell Development, Hopewell Real Estate Services, Hopewell Residential, Ziing Group Inc., and Groundbreak Ventures.
The Canada-wide Best Managed Company recognition is bestowed on a select number of privately held companies, and each Hopewell Group company is proud to be a recipient again in 2024.
“Our true strength is harnessing the synergy between each of our companies,” Lee says. “We want to thrive, we want to grow – but we also serve a bigger purpose for the community. As a Group, we lead through innovation, and our people are what set us apart. Together, our people are building for the future, deliberately, and with purpose.”
With decades of experience in its respective industries and a strategic focus on venture investments, Hopewell has expanded across North America. Headquartered in Calgary, divisions now have operations across Canada and the U.S., while the Group’s venture investments span the globe, including Europe and Asia.
Its strong foundation was built in land development, construction, logistics and warehousing. Hopewell now builds to a future of platform capabilities, which are asset-light, service-oriented, scalable, and technology- and data-driven. Further, its venture capital targeting emerging Property Technology opportunities could help move the Group’s respective industries forward at scale.
As a Canada’s Best Managed Company since 2016, this two-time Platinum recognition is a testament to Hopewell’s people-focused, future-oriented approach. Hopewell continues to lead, and is proud to help shape the future of real estate, logistics and property technology.
