Our growth into one of Canada\u2019s top companies proves that culturally grounded marketing is more than an inclusion strategy. It is a competitive advantage.\u201d<\/b>\n

TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA, September 29, 2026 \/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — AVC<\/a> is pleased to announce it has ranked No. 324 on the 2026 Report on Business magazine\u2019s ranking of Canada\u2019s Top Growing Companies.<\/p>\n

Canada\u2019s Top Growing Companies ranks Canadian companies on three-year revenue growth. AVC earned its spot with three-year growth of 62%, marking the agency\u2019s fourth consecutive year on the list.
\nA nationwide study conducted by AVC and Ipsos found that 51% of Canadians do not feel represented in advertising. AVC\u2019s latest research, based on responses from more than 2,000 consumers across five multicultural communities, further shows that culture continues to shape how people connect, consume and choose.<\/p>\n

\u201cBrands are not just missing the mark, they are missing the market,\u201d said Joycelyn David, CEO of AVC. \u201cOur growth into one of Canada\u2019s top companies proves that culturally grounded marketing is more than an inclusion strategy. It is a competitive advantage.\u201d<\/p>\n

The recognition comes during another milestone year for AVC. In June, RAD Intel acquired a majority stake in the agency, supporting AVC\u2019s continued growth and the expansion of its multicultural marketing capabilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaking this list once is an achievement. Doing it four years in a row says something much bigger about the business,\u201d said Jeremy Barnett, CEO and co-founder of RAD Intel. \u201cJoycelyn and the full AVC team have built a company that knows how to grow consistently, and that track record is exactly what got our attention. We invested because we believe there\u2019s a lot more ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur annual ranking of Canada\u2019s Top Growing Companies celebrates the innovation, ambition and resilience of businesses across the country, and we\u2019re always excited to share as many of these standout stories as we can \u2014 including insight from the entrepreneurs themselves on how other companies can succeed, too,\u201d said Dawn Calleja, editor of Report on Business magazine.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Globe and Mail congratulates the winners of Canada’s Top Growing Companies 2026 on this exceptional achievement,\u201d said Andrew Saunders, president and CEO of The Globe and Mail. \u201cEach of these organizations has shown an extraordinary ability to adapt, innovate and grow amid ongoing change.
