HOUSTON, Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. Magazine ranked Myrtle Consulting Group (Myrtle) No. 1974 on its annual Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. Boasting close to 400 percent growth rate over the last three years, Myrtle joins an elite group of the most successful companies within America's dynamic independent small business segment that once included Microsoft, Dell, LinkedIn, Yelp and Zillow.
"Earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 list for three consecutive years is a tremendous achievement and demonstrates the hard work our team has invested in positively impacting our clients, our community and our industry segments at large," said Edwin Bosso, founder and CEO of Myrtle. "It's extremely rewarding to earn recognition for carrying out our mission of delivering operational value and sustainable transformations to leading manufacturing, processing, and distribution companies."
Myrtle has more than doubled its number of employees since 2015 and in the last two years has expanded its footprint to Latin America as well as Canada with the acquisition of Kalium Consulting. In addition, Myrtle recently secured a seven-figure non-equity investment from Decathlon Capital Partners to support and drive continued growth. The capital infusion will be used for International corporate offices, expanding the consulting team and securing partnerships in Canada, Mexico, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Companies listed on the 2018 Inc. 5000 feature aggregate revenue of $206 billion, generating 664,095 jobs over the past three years. The 2018 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 538.2 percent, and a median rate of 171.8 percent.
"If your company is on the Inc. 5000, it's unparalleled recognition of your years of hard work and sacrifice," says Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter.
