Express Employment Professionals franchisee Peter J. Brown announced the company’s top rankings in the Inc. magazine list of fastest-growing private companies in the country. Express ranked in the top 10 on the 2008 Inc. 5000 lists for both revenue and gross sales.

The Inc. 5000 list is a comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy – America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

Express is honored to be among those older companies still experiencing phenomenal growth, Brown said. “It is truly a great accomplishment to be recognized on the 2008 Inc. 5000 lists for revenue and gross sales. Everyone at Express works hard to continually provide outstanding service to local businesses and job seekers, which is why Express is an international success.”

The 5000 companies that made the list reported aggregate revenue of $185 billion and median three-year growth of 147 percent.

Most importantly, the 2008 Inc. 5000 companies were engines of job growth, creating more than 826,033 jobs since those companies were founded.
