Inc. revealed this week that Peachtree VA and the Emerald Group Consultants made the 2024 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. While we ranked 1,428 on the overall list, we also achieved the distinction of being ranked #1 in Cleveland, Ohio. This prestigious list provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
A New Chapter for Peachtree VA
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while
navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring
challenges. This year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy since 2020.
“Being on the Inc. 5000 list is a tremendous honor for our company. It shows that we are doing the right things day to day as we grow and build the organization. This is just the beginning, though. We have set many lofty goals, and I am incredibly excited to achieve them with the great team that we have in place,” says John McKenna, CEO of Peachtree VA and Founder of the Emerald Group Consultants.
As we look ahead, we must first recognize the incredible journey we’ve taken together. Peachtree VA has achieved remarkable growth, and for that, we owe deep gratitude to our dedicated team members and valued clients. We are so grateful to our corporate and VA teams for the tremendous work they do. Our company’s foundation is about helping businesses and entrepreneurs grow and flourish, and they make that a reality every day. And to our clients, we are deeply thankful for your trust in us. We hope your faith in Peachtree VA has brought you the success and support you deserve.
