\u201cWe are honored to be included in the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing private companies in America for a third year,\u201d said John Hahn, CEO of EPIC. \u201cThis recognition from a highly respected and prestigious organization validates that EPIC\u2019s strategic plan is successfully driving steady, sustained expansion into new markets. At the same time, we have maintained and strengthened our people-first, client-focused culture that attracts and retains top talent and sustains a very high level of customer service excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 2016 Inc. 5000, unveiled online at Inc.com and with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc. is the most competitive crop in the list\u2019s history. The average company on the list achieved a mind-boggling three-year growth of 433 percent. The Inc. 5000\u2019s aggregate revenue is $200 billion, and the companies on the list collectively generated 640,000 jobs over the past three years, or about 8 percent of all jobs created in the entire economy during that period.<\/p>\n

President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. \u201cIt honors real achievement by a founder or a team of them. No one makes the Inc. 5000 without building something great \u2013 usually from scratch. That\u2019s one of the hardest things to do in business, as every company founder knows. But without it, free enterprise fails.\u201d<\/p>\n The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring all the companies on the list will be held from October 18 through 20, in San Antonio, Texas.<\/p>\n About EPIC:<\/strong> MEDIA CONTACTS:<\/strong><\/p>\n David Hock<\/strong> Nicole Conley<\/strong> More about Inc. and the Inc. 500|5000:<\/strong> SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. and NEW YORK, N.Y., Aug. 31, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Inc. magazine recently ranked EPIC Insurance Brokers and Consultants, a retail property, casualty insurance brokerage and employee benefits consultant, NO. 2288 on its 35th annual Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies.

\nMethodology: The 2016 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2012 to 2015. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2012. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent – not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies – as of December 31, 2015. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2012 is $100,000; the minimum for 2015 is $2 million.
