The Humberview Group (HG) was recognized for its industry-leading performance, its global business practices, and its sustained growth by receiving the prestigious 2026 Canada’s Best Managed Companies award for a third consecutive year.
Celebrating over 30 years, Canada’s Best Managed Companies program awards excellence in private Canadian-owned companies. To attain the designation, companies are evaluated on their leadership in the areas of strategy, culture and commitment, capabilities, and innovation, governance and financial performance.
“Earning the Canada’s Best Managed Companies designation for the third year in a row is a tremendous honour and a testament to the passion and dedication of our entire team,” says John Esplen, President & CEO. “At The Humberview Group, we believe success comes from elevating excellence every day — in our culture, in how we develop our team, and in the experiences we create for our customers. This recognition reinforces the strength of our team and our commitment to continuous improvement as we work to set new standards within the automotive industry.”
Canada’s Best Managed Companies is one of the country’s leading business awards programs recognizing innovative and world‑class businesses. Every year, hundreds of entrepreneurial companies compete for this designation in a rigorous and independent evaluation process.
Applicants are evaluated by an independent panel of judges with representation from program sponsors and special guests.

Together, these practices strengthen the Canadian economy by promoting sustainable growth, enhancing competitiveness, and cultivating a thriving business ecosystem.
Over the past year, companies such as The Humberview Group, have continually adapted and successfully responded to challenges, seized new opportunities, and leveraged industry leading competencies to maximize their investments and drive sustainable growth,” said Derrick Dempster, Partner, Deloitte Private and Canada’s Best Managed Co-Leader. “These winners have set the standard of excellence for Canada’s business ecosystem by demonstrating a strong commitment to strategic transformation, talent and workforce development, and technological and business adaptability.”
