For Immediate Release August 23, 2007
Saelig Company, Inc. (Pittsford) Ranked No. 2648 on the 2007 Inc. 5,000 List
With Three-Year Sales Growth of 128%
NEW YORK, August 23, 2007 – Inc. Magazine has ranked Saelig Company, Inc. (Pittsford, NY) No. 2648 on its first-ever Inc5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. The Inc5000 list is an extension of Inc. magazine’s well-known annual Inc500 list, and catches a host of smaller firms that don’t quite make the Inc500.
Saelig Company, Inc. procures and sells unique electronic components and products and markets them mainly to American engineers, although sales are worldwide. With a growing reputation for introducing unique, useful electronic products to design engineers, Saelig saw 2006 sales grow by 128% in the past 12 months.
“This ranking acknowledges the hard work put in by our employees to grow our company while still having fun!” said CEO Alan Lowne, an ex-Kodak engineer. “’Saelig’ is an Old English word meaning happy, prosperous and blessed - which is what we want our customers and employees to be!”
“The Inc5000 list provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy – the entrepreneurial part,” said Inc5000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The expansion of the list has allowed us to tell the stories of larger companies, older companies, and a wealth of companies in industries like Manufacturing and Construction that are underreported in the business media. The 2007 Inc5000 reported median revenue of $9.4M and median 3-year growth of 140% (see www.inc.com/inc5000). The list features a profile for each company, and is searchable according to various criteria.
