“We know that we can only maximize our economy’s growth and reach our potential as a state if we have an environment in which entrepreneurs can thrive,” stated  Gov. Jack Markell in response to the announcement of the list.

 “The Inc 5000 list is a reflection of some of the progress we have made. Combined with our ranking as one of the top 2 states best positioned for the new economy, as well as the recent recognition of Wilmington as one of the top cities for entrepreneurs, we are moving in the right direction,” the governor stated. “With so many hard working business people and innovators in our state, along with new initiatives like an expanded research and development tax credit for small businesses, we look forward to having more Delaware businesses on this list in the future.”

A blog post by SevOne, noted that the growth of the company continued after the latest rating material was compiled. “And while the Inc. 5000 shows SevOne had just under 300 employees at the end of 2013, SevOne’s Culture of Awesome is now almost 400 strong. SevOne opened an office in Boston in January 2014. But the success and excitement is not just about adding people and expanding offices. Some of the world’s largest organizations rely on SevOne to monitor their IT infrastructures,” the post noted.

A long-time member of the list is Incorporating Services, Dover. “I am proud to say that for the fourth time in seven years, Incorporating Services has received the honor of being named on the Inc. 500|5000 list as well as being the only Delaware based corporate service provider to make the list. The credit for this achievement goes to our dedicated employees and wonderfully loyal clients who have contributed to such steady and dramatic growth”, says Joshua Twilley, president. The company ranked 4,456th on the 5,000-company list.

Capriotti’s, a sandwich shop franchise group founded in Delaware and now based in Las Vegas came in at 4,817.

The INC. 5000 list provides an insight into fast-growing companies in the state that are in rapid growth mode and do not have time or resources to tell their growth story. A few, such as Integrity and SevOne now have hundreds of employees.

Among the 50 states, California had nearly 700 of the 5,000 fast-growing companies, while Wyoming had no companies in the ranking. Pennsylvania had 191 companies, with Maryland coming in at 121 and New Jersey at 164.
