Here’s an A-Z look at Kansas City’s 50 fastest-growing companies based on average annual revenue growth from 2018 to 2020. (The final Fast 50 rankings will be revealed in our Aug. 6 weekly edition.)
During a tumultuous 2020, some area companies were in the right place at the right time.
The most obvious examples of the pandemic’s fortuitous nature are the top two companies set to grace this year’s Fast 50. With two-year average annual revenue growth rates of 3,766% and 2,913%, these businesses skyrocketed as they delivered timely solutions during the pandemic.
The List, which requires businesses to attain revenue of $1 million or more in 2020, saw all 50 companies report growth in excess of 36.7%. That’s almost 3 percentage points higher than last year’s List.
Although it may seem easier for small businesses to gain entry to the Fast 50, this year almost half (24) of the companies are classified as middle-market companies — which we’ve defined as $10 million to $1 billion in revenue in 2020.
