Clean Method earned a spot on the 43rd edition of Inc. Magazine’s Inc. 5000 list, an annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the US. The list ranks companies based on three years of annual revenue growth and is considered America’s entrepreneurial benchmark. To make the list, Clean Method demonstrated 116% growth over the previous three years.
“We’re so proud to have our name on this prestigious list for the first time,” says Todd Galaida, CEO of Clean Method. “It’s recognition that we are growing as a company and are becoming an important reference in the commercial cleaning services space. The ranking helps us reach more businesses and organizations who need the reassurance that comes with working with a recognized topline service provider like us.”
A strict set of requirements must be met to become eligible for the list. First off, the company must be privately held, for profit, and independent. For the most recent list, a company must have been founded and generating revenue as of March 31, 2020, and have generated a minimum of $100,000 in revenue that year. It must also have generated a minimum of $2 million in revenue in 2023. All companies are verified and vetted if they hope to appear on the list.
Past companies who made it to the Inc. 5000 list include Intuit, Zappos, Microsoft, GoPro, Timberland, Patagonia, Oracle and Grubhub. The 2024 rankings unite companies from every state and Puerto Rico. Companies as small as one employee and those whose revenues are well into the billions can be found on the list.
Along with Inc. Magazine, others are taking notice of Clean Method’s growing importance within the commercial cleaning services industry. Building Service Contractors Association International (BSCAI) awarded an Image Award to Clean Method for its efforts in enhancing the image of the business and the commercial cleaning services industry in 2024.
