FIRST-EVER LIST OF THE 5,000 FASTEST-GROWING BUSINESSES REPORTS TOTAL REVENUE OF $194.5 BILLION
J. Calnan & Associates, Inc. Ranks In The Top 5,000 With Three-Year Sales Growth of 61%

8/31/2007, Quincy, MA -- Inc. today ranked J. Calnan & Associates, Inc. on its first-ever Inc. 5,000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. The Inc. 5,000, an extension of Inc. magazine’s annual Inc. 500 list, catches many businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

“The Inc. 5,000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy – the entrepreneurial part,” said Inc. 5,000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The expansion of the list has allowed us to tell the stories of larger companies, older companies, and a wealth of companies in industries like Manufacturing and Construction that are underreported in the business media.


“We are proud of our growth and success,” said Jay Calnan, president. “This recognition acknowledges the companies that represent the backbone of our country’s economy and we are proud our company is among them.”
