Wakefield Canada, a proudly Canadian-owned and operated leader in automotive and heavy-duty lubricants, is celebrating a double milestone in 2025: its 20th anniversary and its renewed recognition as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies. This prestigious designation reaffirms Wakefield’s long-standing commitment to operational excellence, strategic vision, and innovation across Canada’s commercial and automotive industries.

Founded in 2005, Wakefield Canada has grown into one of the country’s most respected and trusted names in automotive and heavy-duty lubricants, anchored by its long-standing partnership as the exclusive marketer, manufacturer, and distributor of Castrol® products in Canada. The company’s success is a distinctly Canadian story—built from the ground up by Canadian leadership, supported by Canadian employees, and driven by a deep understanding of the Canadian market.

“To be named one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies again, particularly in our 20th year, is an incredible honour and a reflection of the talent, dedication, and passion that exists across the Wakefield team,” said Dave Fifield, President and CEO of Wakefield Canada. “This recognition speaks to our belief in investing in our people, staying close to our customers, and always driving forward with purpose and integrity. It also underscores our deep commitment to the Canadian marketplace.”

The Best Managed Companies program, run by Deloitte Canada, recognizes private Canadian companies that demonstrate leadership in strategy, capability, innovation, culture, and financial performance. Wakefield’s repeated wins highlight its consistent excellence and adaptive approach in a competitive and rapidly evolving sector.

“We extend our heartfelt gratitude for the ongoing support and confidence our customers place in Wakefield Canada – a proudly Canadian-owned, Canadian-operated company,” says Fifield

For two decades, Wakefield has not just served the Canadian market—it has helped shape it. With this latest honour, Wakefield Canada stands out not only as a top performer but as a Canadian success story worth celebrating.
