New York, NY and Atlanta, GA, August 23, 2007
Inc. magazine today ranked SteelMart number 1,599 on its first ever Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. SteelMart also ranked number 73 in the Top Companies in Atlanta, Sandy Springs, and Marietta Georgia.
“If you want to find out which companies are going to change the world, look at the Inc. 5000,” said Inc. Editor Jane Berentson. “These are the most innovative, dynamic, fast-growth companies in the nation, the ones coming up with solutions to some of our most intractable ills, creating systems that let us conduct business faster and easier, and manufacturing products we soon discover we can’t live without. The Inc. 5000 list is Inc. magazine’s tribute to American business ingenuity and ambition.”
“Paul and I have grown our business by doing what we say we are going to do. That includes every interaction with our customers, employees, and vendors. This is a very simple concept, but it has done wonders for SteelMart,” said Brian Satisky, co-owner of SteelMart.
