Doubling down on client service and expanding into new verticals has fueled the agency's triple-digit growth and positioned it for recognition
TORONTO, Oct. 17, 2023 /CNW/ - 1Milk2Sugars (1M2S) is proud to be named among The Globe And Mail's 2023 Report on Business ranking of Canada's Top Growing Companies. A barometer of performance excellence since 2019, this program ranks participating private and public enterprises by three-year revenue growth.
1Milk2Sugars, a female-owned and led communications agency specializing in public relations and content marketing secured the 245th position among 425 businesses. This placement is owing to the company's 176% growth rate between 2019 and 2022.
"Being ranked on the list of Canada's Top Growing Companies is particularly gratifying because of the time period it covers," says Priya Chopra, Founder of 1Milk2Sugars. "It's no secret the challenges faced by Canadian businesses from 2019-2022 and we're honoured to have our growth recognized among these resilient companies. This achievement is a testament to our team's unwavering dedication to client service and sets the stage for even more exciting milestones ahead."
During the years of economic instability brought on by the pandemic, 1M2S made the strategic decision to reinvest in its business, double down on client service and reinforce its team. The agency pivoted to meet new socially distanced realities, quickly adjusting its offerings to help brands meet consumers where they were – at home and online. As the world reopened and the demand for in-person experiences returned, 1M2S was ready to support with product launches, press trips and a resurgence of large-scale activations.
- Named its first-ever equity partners and shareholders: Vice-President & General Manager, Ruth Goudie and Creative Director, Emma Cusson.
- Several promotions and a hiring push translating to a 400% staffing increase since January 2019.
- Relocating to a new head-office in Toronto, doubling the size of its former footprint.
- Expansion into new marketing verticals, including home renovation & home decor, health & wellness and food & beverage. This broadened scope, combined with a continued focus on lifestyle and beauty brands, resulted in a 208% new business increase.
