Montréal-based Paragraph Incorporated, a print and digital communications specialist, has joined an elite group of the country’s most prosperous, dynamic and largest companies with its elevation into the ranks of the Growth 500 Fastest-Growing Companies in Canada (formerly known as the PROFIT 500). Growth 500 ranks Canada’s fastest-growing private and public companies based on five-year revenue growth. In Paragraph’s case, revenues have increased by 135% in the past 5 years as a result of the company’s ability to reinvent itself and adapt to new market realities – including the evolution of digital print. Companies that make the Growth 500 ranking will be featured in the October editions of L’Actualité (“Les Leaders de la croissance”) and Maclean’s magazines, as well as the CanadianBusiness.com website.
“We’re thrilled to be so favourably positioned within a group of companies that stand out from the crowd for their strong growth, and we thank Growth 500 for this recognition,” said Martin Lépine, President of Paragraph Inc. “The printing industry, recognized for being traditional, is undergoing profound changes, and we’ve quickly taken advantage of the opportunities presented by digital to anticipate our customers’ needs and better support them in commercializing their products and services. This why we’re investing significantly in R&D to ensure that our products and services remain relevant and leading-edge – and this is also contributing directly to the growth of our operations,” he added. Paragraph’s innovative, integrated solutions have had a tangible impact on its customers’ operating budgets, enabling them to realize genuine savings, which in turn gives them greater marketing agility and a significant competitive advantage. This role as a solutions’ integrator has also played a decisive role in the company’s revenue growth.
For over 25 years, Paragraph has developed customized, innovative and integrated printing, document-management and digital-media solutions for its customers. Its knowledge and expertise in these areas have made Paragraph one of the industry’s best-known companies. Today it’s positioned itself as a leader in an industry now undergoing major transitions. The company offers an extensive range of services including graphic design, marketing and integrated communications, high-end printing (conventional, digital and large-format), point-of-sale (POS) advertising, distribution and specialty advertising.
