KINGSVILLE, ON - When it comes to corporate culture, Red Sun Farms knows a thing or two about setting the bar and taking its personal and professional achievements to the next level. The company was recently recognized as one of Canada’s 10 Most Admired Corporate Cultures for having a culture that has impacted its performance. 2014 marks the 10th anniversary of the Canada’s 10 Most Admired Corporate Cultures program.
“We know that success isn’t just about us as a company; it is about promoting the well-being of our industry as a whole. That care and concern is communicated all they way down to each individual at Red Sun. Creating and sustaining a corporate culture where the individual thrives as much as the company allows us a strong foundation to continually build upon,” Jim DiMenna, President and CEO of Red Sun Farms, tells me. “We also know that staying informed and giving our employees a voice in all aspects of the trade, keeps us on top of the game.”
The award was created by executive search firm Waterstone Human Capital to distinguish great workplaces where culture impacts performance. The winning organizations are selected by a panel of experts based on six measurement criteria, according to a press release:
- Vision and leadership
- Recruitment and hiring for fit
- Cultural alignment and measurement
- Retention, rewards and recognition
- Organizational performance
- Corporate social responsibility
“It’s all about the people here at Red Sun,” Jim notes. “Our culture allows us to run a good, solid company, which is translated into delivering a good, solid, quality product.”
Congratulations, Red Sun Farms!
