The growth of these companies has been recognised by the Inc. 5000, which profiles and awards companies all over the United States for their commitment and subsequent success.
Ranging from rankings per state to those all around the country, these businesses have made the extra effort, had the most unique idea, and have reaped the benefits of providing a business which has enticed a customer base.
Doc Popcorn
Placed at #5 in Colorado, Doc Popcorn was established by a husband-and-wife team who originally made the product in their New York City apartment! With a focus upon natural flavours and healthy snacks, the company expanded nationally.
The three-year growth was a massive 5,011% with revenue jumping from the thousands in 2009, to the multi-millions in 2012. With a friendly, family focussed ethos, Doc Popcorn has truly made its mark on the American food market, and the range of products now available will help to feed the whole family.
Home Wet Bar
In Oklahoma, Home Wet Bar hits #33 thanks to the massive growth the business experienced over the past three years. Providing gift and home ideas for men, Home Wet Bar filled a much-ignored part of the market.
Male products, drinking and entertainment are the focus of the retailer, as well as a family-friendly service which reflects the family business itself. It’s a pure American business where the workers have hands on experience with the product.
Superfly Kids
Based in Michigan, Superfly Kids is #2 in its state thanks to a unique and child-friendly approach to children’s retail which keeps both the parents and the children happy at the same time. Utilising the favourite genres of children worldwide, the concept is incredibly unique and this originality is reflected in the profits!
With features which allow children to dress their toys in the same clothes and even build their own outfit, Superfly Kids never loses focus of its audience, while creating quality products which parents will also be happy with.
Lumosity
Lumosity takes self-improvement and gives it a great, unique twist, choosing to focus upon the mind rather than the body. It would seem customers like this approach as the company is now #75 of Californian companies!
