The 2023 designees are U.S. private companies that have demonstrated excellence in strategic planning and execution, a commitment to their people and fostering a dynamic culture, as well as strong financials. Designees propelled their businesses forward and remained true to their purpose and values by investing in their people, creating advantage through digital transformation, taking measurable action on sustainability, and demonstrating their commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

"Our entire team – from our growers to plant operations and administrative staff – are all committed to delivering the highest quality products to our consumers through dedication, innovation and stellar execution. I am so thrilled that Deloitte sees and recognizes what I see every day from our amazing team, and we are grateful for this acknowledgement of our efforts."

Applicants are evaluated and selected by a panel of external judges focused on assessing hallmarks of excellence in four key areas: strategy, ability to execute, corporate culture and governance/financial performance. They join a global ecosystem of honorees from more than 46 countries recognized by the Best Managed Companies program.
