Sault Ste. Marie, ON – Business – McDougall Energy Inc. has been named a winner of Canada’s Best Managed Companies over the past four years and has requalified in 2015 to maintain its status as a Best Managed Gold Requalified company. The Sault Ste. Marie based company was first named a winner of Canada’s Best Managed Companies program in 2011. This honour for excellence in business performance is sponsored by Deloitte, CIBC, National Post, Queen’s School of Business and MacKay CEO Forums. The Best Managed award recognizes Canadian owned and managed companies with revenues over $10 million for sustained growth, financial performance, management practices and the efforts of the entire organization.

“I would like to recognize the entire efforts of McDougall Energy. It takes a dedicated effort from an entire team to focus on a core vision, create stakeholder value and excel in the global economy to achieve this level of success,” said Peter Brown, Partner, Deloitte and Co-Leader, Canada’s Best Managed Companies Program.

Now in its third generation of family ownership, McDougall Energy has grown to become one of the largest integrated distributors of Esso and Mobil products in Canada. The 70 year old energy company operates in various regions across Canada serving Business, Residential and Retail customers.

When asked about the award McDougall Energy President, Darren McDougall had this to say, “What an incredible honour it is for McDougall Energy to be named as a Best Managed Gold Requalified company. Since first being recognized in 2011, we have been driven to maintain a high level of business excellence, and it goes to show that we are continuing to grow with the right people. As a family business that started in Northern Ontario over 70 years ago, we have come a long way. This award belongs to everyone who played a part in our success; our loyal customers, dedicated employees, family members and our critical partners. I also want to thank Canada’s Best Managed Companies judges, coaches and sponsors for this prestigious award.
