Once again demonstrating its strength, Alberta has a strong showing in an annual ranking of Canada's fastest-growing businesses.
In their 2023 ranking of Canada's Fast-Growing Companies, The Globe & Mail identifies 11 Edmonton-based businesses and 25 Calgary-based businesses.
"These 425 businesses—which range in size from three to nine thousand employees—represent a wide range of goods and services, from private equity financing to perinatal health care to anti-chafing shorts. However, they all share remarkable three-year growth rates," according to G&M.
Dr. Phone Fix, an electronics repair company based in Edmonton that has experienced rapid growth, debuts on the list for the first time, ranking 10th nationally after a three-year revenue increase of more than 3,000%.
Growing companies in Edmonton's tech sector include the heavily capitalized Jobber (128th), the fintech startup Trust Science (20th), and OneSoft Solutions (269th), which provides sales software.
Saturn Oil & Gas, established in 2001, is the fastest-growing company in Calgary, with revenue growth of almost 2,000% to date.
Regular readers of Calgary.tech will be familiar with the tech companies on the list, which includes well-funded Symend (ranked 34th) and award-winning Goodlawyer (ranked 35th), along with virtual Gurus (ranked 91st) and Showpass (ranked 192nd), innovators in event tickets.
The list also included Consumer Genius, a different startup that Calgary.tech covered earlier this year.
