ZG Companies announced today that the company has made the Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. Ranking No. 952 on the list with a 520 percent three-year revenue growth puts ZG Companies in the top 20 percent of list makers as a first-year recipient of the award.

The Inc. 5000 list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow and many other well-known names were previously on the list.

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.

Inc. 5000 eligibility requirements include being a privately owned, U.S.-based company and providing detailed financial information to determine growth rate in the specified time period. Companies are then ranked based on that revenue growth.

Founded in 2012, ZG Companies invests in and develops residential and commercial real estate projects throughout Texas. The company offers vertically integrated services, including acquisitions, development, construction, property management, and asset management.
