For the 12th consecutive time in the awards’ 16-year history, Combilift has been recognized as a Best-Managed Company, requalifying as a Platinum winner for the sixth time. Their management prowess was rewarded at Deloitte’s prestigious awards ceremony in Dublin on September 19th.
The Deloitte Best Managed Company award acknowledges the achievements of management teams, not just individuals. The accolade recognizes overall business performance based on the criteria of Strategy, Capability and Innovation, Culture and Commitment, and Governance and Financial Performance. Judges examine every company based on these four equally weighted pillars to select a winner.
The Best Managed Companies Program originated in Canada in 1993, with Ireland’s program, introduced in 2008, being the second longest-running program. In addition to Ireland and Canada, the program is currently run in 48 countries across four continents.
Founded in 1998 by Martin McVicar and Robert Moffett, Combilift has grown from a small team of 10 to a total staff of over 850 people, selling to 85 countries worldwide. When receiving the award, Martin McVicar said, “It’s a great honor for us as a company to be acknowledged once again by a global brand such as Deloitte’s Best Managed Companies. The credibility of this global award enhances our brand to scale internationally”.
