With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 684 Percent, Spool Receives Ranking No. 940 Among America's Fastest-Growing Private Companies and 46 Fastest in Chicago
CHICAGO, Aug. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --Today, Spool was listed as the 940 overall fastest-growing private company in the country, positioning it within the top 20% of the overall Inc. 5000 list. Additionally, the Chicago-based creative marketing and communications agency was ranked as the 71st fastest growing company within the marketing space and 46th overall in Chicago where the agency's headquarters reside. The Inc. 5000 list represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy's most dynamic segment—its independent businesses. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
"I couldn't be more proud that Spool has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing companies, especially on the cusp of what will be the agency's fourth anniversary in September," said Catherine Merritt, CEO and founder of Spool. "Spool was founded to be a radically different company, with innovation and people at the center of all we do. For Spool to be named among some of the most innovative and successful companies in the nation means our promise is being kept."
