TORONTO, Sept. 24, 2021 /CNW/ - Baskits Inc. is pleased to announce its placement in the 2021 Report on Business ranking list of Canada's Top Growing Companies for a second year in a row.

This list showcases Canadian companies who demonstrate exceptional three-year revenue growth. Baskits Inc. earned its spot with three-year growth of 184%, placing 221/448 on the list.

Baskits Inc. is Canada's preeminent gift delivery service company which designs, manufactures and delivers gift baskets that surprise and delight all across Canada and the US.

"It is an honour to be named one of Canada's Top Growing Companies for a second year in a row," said Baskits President and CEO Robin Kovitz. "We believe in the kind and thoughtful act of giving - which has become even more important over the last few years. Our growth as a company is a testament to the incredible power of generosity. When you buy a gift from Baskits, you are supporting small businesses and artisans from all across Canada. Being named as one of Canada's Top Growing companies ensures that we can continue working with local brands and support each other's success long-term."

As the world adapts and evolves, the art of gifting remains popular as people find new ways to connect and reach out to each other. For Baskits, this means growing its purchases each year and including even more local businesses so that it can better achieve that goal.
