Columbus region puts 51 companies on the Inc. 5000 list, including one at No. 6 in the U.S.

This year’s Inc. 5000 list of the nation’s fastest-growing privately held companies includes 51 area businesses, including one that made it into the Top 10 nationwide.

The annual ranking by Inc. magazine put the Columbus-based lender Small Business Owners of America at the top of the list in Central Ohio and statewide. The company ranked No. 6 in the United States with a three-year growth rate of 19,352 percent to reach $19.7 million in revenue in 2016.

We talked with SBOA founder James Moore last year about his company’s meteoric growth as he expanded from consulting for small businesses to helping them arrange financing.

Below is a list of the companies on the Inc. 5000 identified as being based in Central Ohio and Athens, along with their national rank. The list includes private, independently owned companies based in the U.S. that had at least $2 million in revenue last year.
