PomeGran Places #1 in Telecom Services for the Second Consecutive Year in The Globe and Mail's Annual Ranking of Canada's Top Growing Companies

PomeGran ranks #82 nationally with 348% three-year revenue growth, marking its second consecutive year among Canada's Top Growing Companies.

TORONTO, Sept. 25, 2026 /CNW/ -- PomeGran Inc. (PomeGran) today announced that it has been recognized as the #1 Telecom Services provider for the second consecutive year in The Globe and Mail's Report on Business magazine's 2026 ranking of Canada's Top Growing Companies. PomeGran ranked #82 out of 375 companies nationwide, based on verified three-year revenue growth of 348% from 2022 to 2025. The company is listed within the ranking's Technology and Telecom category.

The recognition follows PomeGran's strong performance in 2025, when the company also ranked #1 in Telecom Services and #62 overall among 400 companies, with three-year revenue growth of 557%.

PomeGran's continued position among Canada's fastest-growing companies reflects the company's sustained expansion in the digital infrastructure sector and its continued investment in sovereign digital infrastructure, fibre-enabled neocloud services and Indigenous and underserved communities across Ontario and Quebec.

"Being recognized, once again, among Canada's fastest-growing companies, and ranking #1 in Telecom Services for the second consecutive year, is an important validation of the business we continue to build," said Dr. Kalai S. Kalaichelvan, Chairman & CEO of PomeGran. "PomeGran's growth reflects our long-term commitment to investing in Canadian sovereign digital infrastructure, expanding connectivity in Indigenous and underserved communities, and building the neocloud platforms and services that will power the next phase of our growth," he stated.

Sustaining Growth While Building the Next Phase of Impact

PomeGran's 348% three-year revenue growth reflects a period of significant expansion across the company's infrastructure, network and telecommunications operations.

The company has continued to expand its sovereign fibre footprint across Ontario and Quebec while strengthening its ability to deliver reliable, high-speed connectivity to rural, remote and Indigenous communities.

NIVO, PomeGran's new customer-facing Internet and connectivity brand, is driving PomeGran's growth, by serving residential and enterprise customers, as the company's fibre footprint continues to expand. The addition of neocloud and AI compute services is a natural evolution in PomeGran's establishment as the leading Canadian provider of rural fibre-based broadband and digital infrastructure services. 

Over the past 12 months, NIVO's subscriber base has grown by more than 38%, driven by the continued expansion of PomeGran's fibre footprint and growth across residential and enterprise customers. Over the same period, PomeGran's fibre footprint across Ontario and Quebec has increased by more than 43%, extending the company's ability to deliver high-speed connectivity and digital infrastructure services to more customers and communities. The continued expansion of NIVO represents an important component of PomeGran's next stage of growth, allowing the company to translate its infrastructure investments into stronger customer relationships and broader telecommunications services.

"Connectivity is about more than infrastructure. When we bring reliable, high-speed Internet to a community, we are helping create economic opportunity, giving local businesses the tools to grow, and making it easier for people to work, learn and build their lives where they choose," said John Bednarek, Chief Revenue Officer of PomeGran. "For families, it means being able to stay connected to the people and services that matter. For communities, it means creating stronger connections and new opportunities for long-term growth."

"We have spent the past several years building the infrastructure required to connect communities that have historically been underserved," added Kalaichelvan. "NIVO allows us to build on that foundation and create a more complete digital experience, from the fibre in the ground through to the services delivered to our customers. PomeGran continues to invest in digital infrastructure across Ontario and Quebec, supporting the expansion of high-speed connectivity and the development of more resilient, locally focused telecommunications and neocloud networks," he concluded.

The full list of 2026 winners, along with editorial coverage, is published in the October issue of Report on Business magazine. The list is also published online here.  

"Our annual ranking of Canada's Top Growing Companies celebrates the innovation, ambition and resilience of businesses across the country, and we're always excited to share as many of these standout stories as we can--including insight from the entrepreneurs themselves on how other companies can succeed, too," says Dawn Calleja, Editor of Report on Business magazine.
