Judged by an independent panel made up of program sponsors’ representatives as well as special guest judges, companies with revenues exceeding $50 million that demonstrate leadership in 4 core business criteria, such as strategy, capabilities and innovation, culture and commitment, and financials to achieve sustainable growth are eligible for the 2022 Best Managed award.
NVG is the leading Canadian optical group and a prominent high-end optical retailer in the US. The group provides optometry and audiology services as well as optical and hearing care products. It is dedicated to enhancing life’s sights and sounds in the communities it is serves, improving the lives of thousands of people every day. NVG’s workforce has been at the frontlines of the response to COVID-19, supporting the population as an essential service. The pandemic has not slowed down the Group’s strategic initiatives aimed at making it easier for everyone to get access to care and products. NVG was the first in Canada to enable remote optometry examination, allowing people to get access to an eye exam even when an optometrist is not available locally. It was also the first eyewear retailer to sell glasses online that are of the same quality and precision as those sold in store, thanks to its investment in a revolutionary facial scanning app that takes measurement for the production of high quality glasses. Investing in patient relationship, as well as in technology and innovation, are both vital to NVG’s success.
“New Look Vision Group receives this recognition distinction with humility and gratitude. We are a people first company, striving on building diverse and empowered teams. We are grateful for this testament to our 3,200 team member’s commitment to making easier for everyone to see and hear” said Antoine Amiel, President and CEO of New Look Vision Group.
The 2022 Best Managed Companies share commonalities including putting their people and culture at the forefront of their organization, focusing on their ESG policies, and doubling down on faster digitization.
