IT'S A TIME OF CELEBRATION!
SNI is proudly spending 2025 celebrating 20 years of servicing the Industry.
In honour of celebrating 20 years of service, we’re embarking on a trip down memory lane to summarize some key developments in the industry.
From Regulatory Affairs to Packaging Compliance, to Strategic Consulting, to Clinical Trials: SNI has developed a dynamic and multifaceted portfolio over the past 20+ years working with clients from multinational retail chains to innovative niche brands.
We're celebrating our success, and your success!
Our story goes back a long way, starting in a basement office in Winnipeg suburbia.
We never imagined we’d someday be one of the leading market entry service providers, and we certainly didn’t anticipate we would be on a list of Canada’s Top 10 Contract Research Organization Companies.
