Top Performing Canadian Companies

GLOBAL MARKET ACCESS.
UNPARALLELED TALENT.
LOW COSTS.
REDUCED RISK.

These are just some of the reasons world-leading companies are setting up shop in Canada. Among them, the largest Fortune 500 companies are expanding existing operations or establishing new R&D hubs in Canada.

Canada is the best country for global investment. Period.

In this tumultuous world, it can be difficult to seize opportunities and avoid risk. To grow and succeed, global companies need to find the oasis in the chaos.

Canada is that place. And investors are taking notice.

From 2018 to 2019, FDI into Canada increased by 18.6%, making Canada’s 2019 FDI results 42.5% higher than the previous 10-year average FDI total.

GLOBAL MARKET ACCESS

Canada gives investors preferential market access through 14 trade agreements to 51 countries with nearly 1.5 billion consumers and a combined GDP of US$49.3 trillion.

TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE

Canada is well placed to serve as a central hub for global trade. Our air transport infrastructure is the best in the world and our coastal ports provide direct maritime access to Asia, Europe and South America. The Great Lakes also provide easy access to the U.S.

Combined with secure trade corridors and gateways, our infrastructure facilitates continual supply chain and business operations.

CUSMA

The Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) is now in force. CUSMA replaces the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and modernizes continental trade. 

CETA

The Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) ensures 98% of EU tariffs are duty-free for Canadian goods and guarantees market access to both the EU and North America. No other top investment destination in the Americas can offer access to all 28 EU Member States.

CPTPP

The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) gives companies operating in Canada preferential access to one of the largest trading blocs in the world, including key markets in Asia and Latin America.
