Corporate Knights Again Ranks the Royal Canadian Mint Among Canada’s Best 50 Corporate Citizens

OTTAWA, ONTARIO, JUNE 24, 2026 –The Royal Canadian Mint is proud to be recognized once more by Corporate Knights as one of Canada’s Best 50 Corporate Citizens. This annual corporate responsibility ranking, announced today, primarily recognizes the Mint for its high sustainable revenue and investment percentages relative to its industry peers within the Metal Products Manufacturing group, as well as a number of social impact indicators.  All Canadian corporations with at least $1 billion in annual revenues were assessed in determining Canada’s Best 50 Corporate Citizens.

"For 25 years, Canada's Best 50 Corporate Citizens have set an impressive benchmark, demonstrating how to do business in a way that's consistent with a healthy planet and society. With a recent compound annual growth rate in sustainable revenue of about 22 per cent, they're also laying the groundwork for the accelerated momentum we urgently need,” said Toby Heaps, CEO, Corporate Knights.

“Every day, the Royal Canadian Mint delivers sustainable products and services to our customers, creating economic value for Canada in ways that are both socially and environmentally responsible,” said Simon Kamel, Interim President and CEO of the Royal Canadian Mint. “We are pleased that our sustainable approach to generating revenues and profits is being recognized by Corporate Knights as a model for Canada’s business community and the global minting industry.”

The Mint’s recent successes along our sustainability journey, as well as the ways we can improve, are published in our 2025 Impact Report.
