IRVINE, Calif., March 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inc. magazine revealed that Liquipel has made the second annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: California list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing California-based private companies. Born of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise, this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the California economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses.
“This is an incredible honor to be recognized as one of the fastest-growing companies in California,” said Sam Winkler, CEO and Co-Founder of Liquipel. “I am so proud of our team and all that we have accomplished to keep growing! We’re excited and looking forward to continuing to develop innovative technology for our customers.”
The companies on this list show stunning rates of growth across all industries in California. Between 2017 and 2019, these 250 private companies had an average growth rate of 535 percent and, in 2019 alone, they employed more than 40,000 people and added nearly $7 billion to the California economy. Companies based in major metro areas—Los Angeles, the Bay Area, and San Diego—brought in the highest revenue overall.
