San Bernardino, California, Aug. 26, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inc. magazine listed Garner Holt Productions, Inc. #1802 on its fifth annual Inc. 5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The number reflects the company’s impressive growth. Since last year, the company moved up 625 places in the Inc. list.

In this current stagnant economic environment, Garner Holt Productions experienced a 147 percent three-year sales growth. The median growth rate of 2011 Inc. 500|5000 companies is 94 percent.

Garner Holt Productions is not your typical business to business operation. The Company creates animatronics, special effects and themed attractions for clients such as The Walt Disney Company, Universal Studios, Chuck E Cheese, McDonald’s, NASA and Caesars Resort & Casino. A key to their success is the founder’s aggressive search for new markets. For example, A new division, GHP Products, LLC was opened this month to target upscale consumers.

"I believe that there’s many opportunies out there. You just have to market creatively to find them," said Garner Holt, president and founder of Garner Holt Productions, Inc.  "We are always looking for ways to expand. The company has always had an international presence, but we’re seeing more activity in Asia and South America than ever before. Over the past two years, we’ve created animatronic figures and special effects for military training operations. This is a whole new market we hadn’t tapped."
