The first was for the cover of Canadian Grocer's November issue "Will Amazon take over the world?"

The August sustainability issue earned two nomination, including Best Feature article for freelancer Chris Dart, and Best Art Direction in an opening spread for Maclachlan ("Local Growers", August 2013).

Managing editor, Nancy Kwon, was named a finalist in the Best Technology article category for her feature story on Sobeys'  hight-tech warehouse (“A Brave New World”; February 2013 issue).
