July 16, 2016
NEW YORK, August 17, 2016 -- Inc. magazine ranked PURE Insurance (Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange) No. 2054 on its 35th annual Inc. 5000, up 30 spots from last year’s ranking. An exclusive list of the nation's fastest-growing private companies, Inc. 5000 represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs.
“We are pleased to once again have earned a spot on the Inc. 5000 list of the nation’s fastest growing companies,” said Mark Galante, Chief Marketing Officer of the PURE Group of Insurance Companies. “PURE’s growth is fueled by hiring exceptional people, working with the best independent insurance brokers, and creating a culture that obsesses with delighting our members.”
The 2016 Inc. 5000, unveiled online at Inc.com, is the most competitive crop in the list’s history. The average company on the list achieved an impressive three-year growth of 433%. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue is $200 billion, generating 640,000 jobs over the past three years. Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.
"The Inc. 5000 list stands out where it really counts,” says Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. “It honors real achievement by a founder or a team of them. No one makes the Inc. 5000 without building something great – usually from scratch. That’s one of the hardest things to do in business, as every company founder knows. But without it, free enterprise fails.”
