Equiton’s Rapid Expansion Earns Spot on Globe and Mail’s Ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies
BURLINGTON, ON Sept. 30, 2025 – Equiton has been named one of Canada’s Top Growing Companies by the Globe and Mail. The accolade comes after a year of strategic acquisitions, building on the firm’s 10-year history of rapid portfolio expansion and operational growth.
Recognizing the country’s fastest-growing and most dynamic companies, the Report on Business magazine’s annual list ranks 400 qualifying organizations by their three-year revenue growth. For 2025, Equiton placed 233 countrywide with a three-year revenue growth of 138%. In the financial services category, the company ranked 13.
“Entrepreneurship and growth have always been a part of Equiton’s DNA. Even in tough markets, we’ve always stayed the course — building up and putting our investors and residents first,” says Jason Roque, Equiton’s CEO and founder. “Our team’s talent and expertise are our biggest strengths.”
Founded in 2015 with just three employees — now numbering more than 250 across dedicated investment, property management, and development divisions — Equiton has had much to celebrate in recent years.
The firm’s flagship Equiton Real Estate Income Fund Trust (Apartment Fund) acquired 11 properties since January 2024, entering British Columbia for the first time and marking one of its busiest acquisition periods yet.
As well, Equiton launched the Equiton Monthly Income Fund Trust, further expanding its range of private real estate investment solutions. The fund is designed to generate cash flow through a professionally managed portfolio of short-term loans primarily secured by real property assets.
“Equiton is in a strong position to continue delivering the growth our more than 17,000 investors have come to expect,” says Roque. “We’re extremely proud to see our efforts recognized and look forward to keeping up the momentum.”
