Canada’s Best Managed Companies (since 2003)
Les Résidences Soleil has been honoured and acknowledged as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for a 21th consecutive year. The company now accumulates 21 years as member of the prestigious Best Managed Platinum Club.
This award is a sought-after symbol of excellence among Canadian-owned and managed companies. The Platinum Club symbolizes the very pinnacle among award winners, paying tribute to the “best of the best,” i.e., companies that have been on the country’s Best Managed list for at least six consecutive years. In this regard, Groupe Savoie is proud of its standing as a Platinum Club member for an impressive ten years in a row! Canada’s Best Managed Companies, created in 1993, is the premier ranking system for Canadian companies. The hundreds of companies that enter the contest each year undergo a strict evaluation process, including an analysis of their financial results, overall performance and sustainable growth. The awards are a means of putting a spotlight on Canadian companies that have a solid strategy, exceptional capabilities, commitment and return on investment.

Consumer’s Choice since 2003
Les Résidences Soleil has been a Consumer Choice Award winner every year since 2003, in other words, for 21 consecutive years.
The Consumer Choice Award team partners with Léger Marketing to obtain feedback from thousands of consumers and businesses through an exhaustive national survey. For us, this is not only a true pledge of quality and trust, but also an honour that serves to differentiate us.
“Consumer Choice Award has been helping people make the best choices since 1987. It is the only organization to identify the best service providers in various categories by means of an independent, statistically accurate market survey. Consumer Choice Award recipients are selected by you, the consumer, rather than by a committee of judges. Each year, consumers from across Canada are surveyed and asked about their opinions, perceptions and expectations of the daily services they benefit from. Léger Marketing, Canada’s leading market survey company, is mandated to survey both consumers and organizations. Only the top-ranked companies are selected for consideration. The Consumer Choice Award logo is considered a mark of excellence and serves to identify those companies that were selected as exceptional service providers.” – Consumer Choice Award
