Recognized for Increasing Revenue, Hiring Employees and Growing Fast in Difficult Economic Times
Charlotte, NC – November 1, 2010 – SnapAV, a manufacturer and exclusive source of more than 900 high-quality solutions for the custom A/V channel in the US and Canada, placed #442 in the 2010 Inc. 500 - Inc. Magazine’s exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies.
According to Inc. Magazine, the 2010 Inc. 500 is a group of companies that are smaller but much faster-growing than last year’s crop and represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs.
“Fast growth at any time is a big achievement; fast growth during the past few years is just short of miraculous,” said Inc. editor Jane Berentson. “The Inc. 500 consists of these just-short-of miraculous companies, the ones that through ingenuity and ambition have increased revenue, hired employees, and grown fast in difficult economic times.”
SnapAV Founder and President Jay Faison says, “We do a lot of things differently than many of the other suppliers in the industry. This growth is validation that these differences are exactly what dealers are looking for.”
