Saskatoon, SK -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/18/2020 --7shifts, the leading software platform dedicated to simplifying labor management for restaurants, has been presented the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ program award for its rapid revenue growth, entrepreneurial spirit and bold innovation. The program recognizes Canada's 50 fastest-growing technology companies with the highest revenue-growth percentage over the past four years. 7shifts ranks 41 with a 466% percent in revenue growth from 2016 to 2019.

7shifts also ranked 246 on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing in North America now in its 26th year. The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 and Fast 500 program winners consist of public and private companies in the technology sector, which have transformed the industry.

7shifts's CEO, Jordan Boesch, credits the evolving restaurant landscape with the company's massive 466% percent revenue growth. Boesch said, "In the past 3 years the restaurant industry has undergone a fundamental digital transformation that has only been accelerated by COIVD-19. 7shifts has been on the forefront of providing best-in-class labor management solutions, leading to our tremendous growth. We are well positioned to accelerate our growth even further in 2021 and will continue to support our restaurant partners throughout, what has been, one of the toughest moments in restaurant history."

"This year's Fast 50 winners should be especially proud of this designation, as their role in the fabric of Canadian business—particularly during these turbulent times—is crucial," said Erica Pretorius, partner and national leader for the Technology Fast 50 program at Deloitte Canada. "Their bold vision and true commitment to innovation allow them to not only improve today's world, but also shape tomorrow's, despite the constant uncertainty. This year's winners are proving themselves resilient, innovative and adaptable, all in an unpredictable year defined by economic instability and the continuing public health crisis."
