Fora Financial Named to Inc. 5000 list for Fourth Consecutive Year
New York, NY (PRWEB) August 23, 2017
Fora Financial, a leading provider of flexible working capital solutions to small businesses, has been named to Inc.com’s list of the 5000 fastest-growing private companies nationwide for 2017. This marks the fourth consecutive year Fora Financial has made the acclaimed list, a distinction earned by only one out of ten honorees.
The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy - America's independent entrepreneurs. Companies were ranked based on percentage revenue growth over the period from 2013 to 2016. Fora Financial achieved 126% growth over that timeframe, earning the Company the 2728 ranking on this year’s list.
“We are proud and honored to have made the Inc. 5000 list for the fourth consecutive year,” said Jared Feldman, co-founder and CEO of Fora Financial. “This tremendous accomplishment is a testament to the Fora Financial team’s dedication to providing financing to the under-served small business community. We understand the struggles small business owners face, and have seen first-hand how access to additional working capital can help them flourish.”
This prestigious recognition continues a recent string of successes for Fora Financial. In July, the Company announced an expansion of its revolving credit facility to $66.5 million, up from $52.5 million previously. Fora Financial also recently surpassed the milestone of providing $750 million to more than 13,000 small businesses nationwide. These accomplishments come at a time of volatility within the alternative finance space, reinforcing the Company’s strength and ongoing commitment to small businesses in need of capital.
