Guelph, ON – September 15, 2016 – LifeLearn, Inc., a company devoted to mobilizing knowledge in the animal health industry, was honored today to be ranked No. 317 on the 28th annual PROFIT 500, the definitive ranking of Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies. Published in the October issue of Canadian Business and at PROFITguide.com, the PROFIT 500 ranks Canadian businesses by their five-year revenue growth.
LifeLearn’s ranking at No. 317 moves the company up almost 100 places from their ranking last year at No. 413, demonstrating their ongoing commitment to growth and forward mobility.
“It’s a testament to the hard work and commitment of everyone at LifeLearn to be recognized for the 2nd year in a row as one of Canada’s fastest growing companies,” said James Carroll, President and CEO of LifeLearn. “Looking forward, we’ll continue to keep a strong focus on strategic innovation, product quality, and an organizational culture that fosters high achievement.
