Live Oak Contracting was also recognized as the Fastest Growing Contracting Company with Three-Year Sales Growth of 7,382%

Jacksonville, FL/August 17, 2018 – Inc. magazine announced earlier this week the 37th annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment— its independent small and midsized businesses.

Companies such as Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees of the Inc. 5000. Live Oak Contracting was recognized as the 34th fastest-growing private company overall, and the number one fastest growing company in the construction category.

“There is not one person at this company that has made us successful; It is a team effort from start to finish that has contributed to the success at Live Oak,” Live Oak President and CEO Paul Bertozzi said.

The top 500 companies will be featured in the September issue of Inc. Not only have the companies on the 2018 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists. The 2018 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 538.2 percent, and a median rate of 171.8 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $206.1 billion in 2017, accounting for 664,095 jobs over the past three years.

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring the companies on the list will be held October 17- 19, 2018, at the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort, in San Antonio, Texas. As always, speakers include some of the greatest innovators and business leaders of our generation.
