Clemens Food Group is excited to share that it has been recognized as a 2025 US Best Managed Company. This honor, granted by Deloitte Private and The Wall Street Journal, highlights exceptional private companies in the U.S.
What makes these companies stand out? They excel in strategic planning, execution, and financial governance—all while caring for their employees and customers. Many are using advanced technology, especially AI, to improve efficiency and product quality.
Craig Edsill, the CEO of Clemens Food Group, expressed pride in receiving this award. He said it reflects their strong company culture and strategy. He believes it shows their commitment to integrity and value for both employees and customers. Clemens Food Group plans to continue innovating and making a positive impact in the industry.
The selection process for this award is rigorous. A panel of independent judges assesses companies based on four key areas: strategy, execution, corporate culture, and financial governance. Companies that earn this designation join a global network of honorees from over 44 countries.
Interestingly, history shows that awards like these have evolved over time. Once, such recognitions were limited to large corporations. Now, private companies can achieve this honor, showcasing their importance in driving the economy.
