Our History

The origins of Madison Group date back to 1967 when, as teenagers, founding shareholders Sam Grippo, Sam Joe and Ray Nakatsu purchased acreage in Mission, BC, setting the stage for a career in identifying valuable investment opportunities, taking some calculated risks and having a long-term view to create value.

The Madison Group was unofficially formed in 1973 with the purchase of‘The Madison’, a multifamily apartment building on Vancouver’s West Side. Additional partners were brought into the Group throughout the 1970s, and then in 1976, the Group was officially formed upon purchasing its first operating business, Armature Electric. Armature is still owned by the group to this day, and the industrial division in which Armature sits spans 10 companies with over 600 employees across Canada.
