Remedy Makes 2007 'Inc. 5,000' List with Three-Year Sales Growth of 40%

September 11, 2007 | 8:08 pm

CHICAGO, Sept. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. announced that Remedy has made 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, measures revenue growth from 2003 through 2006. To qualify, companies had to be U.S.-based and privately held, independent -- not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies -- as of December 31, 2006, and have had at least $200,000 in revenue in 2003, and $2 million in 2006.

Remedy, a brand strategy and communications agency in Chicago, has grown annually since its founding in 1989. From 2003 to 2006 -- the period evaluated by Inc. -- Remedy posted a 40 percent growth in revenue. Since day one, Remedy has focused on serving clients in the health and wellness industries, a strategy that's paid off given the strong growth of health-related sectors year after year.

"It's a great honor to be included in this list of the nation's top 5,000 privately held companies," says Remedy founder and president, Carol McCarthy. "As an entrepreneur, it's especially gratifying to be recognized by Inc., an organization which champions and celebrates entrepreneurship."

This isn't the first time McCarthy and Remedy have been recognized for their entrepreneurial success. In 2003, McCarthy was named Illinois Entrepreneur of the Year in Marketing & Public Relations by Ernst and Young.

Hottest Regions for Fastest-Growing Companies

Leading Inc.'s list of the fastest-growing companies in the nation is the Midwest region with 1,046 of the fastest-growing companies, followed by the West with 884 companies. The Southeast comes in a close third, with 872 companies, followed by the Northeast with 782 companies, and the Mid-Atlantic region with 606 companies.

About Remedy

Remedy is a brand strategy and communications agency in Chicago that focuses on health and wellness products and services. Clients include public health campaigns, fitness centers, medical technologies, health services, and nutritious foods. Remedy's goal is to "give health a makeover," by transforming the idea of staying healthy into something more relevant and interesting, for adults and kids alike.
