MassageLuXe Ranks on the 2020 Inc. 5000 of the fastest-growing private companies in America

Inc. magazine today revealed that MassageLuXe, a leading massage franchise, is No. 4849 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment - its independent small businesses. Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“Being recognized by Inc. as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America is a real honor,” says MassageLuXe CEO Mark Otter. “Everyone on our team works hard, and it is great to see that hard work pay off. We are excited to be on this journey and can’t wait to watch MassageLuXe continue to grow in the coming years.”

Not only have the companies on the 2020 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their segments, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth even compared to prior years. The 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding median growth rate of 165 percent, compared to 158 percent from the previous year. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $209.7 billion in 2019, accounting for 582,670 jobs added over the past year.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.

“For decades, Inc. has welcomed the fastest-growing private companies in America, and this year’s set of winners places the bar very high indeed,” said Scott Omelianuk, Editor in Chief of Inc. Media. “Companies that made the list, on average, have grown six-fold since 2016. During a stretch when the economy grew just 15 percent, that’s a result most businesses could only dream of.”

The demand for massage services is growing rapidly as more people seek out the health benefits of this time-honored practice. MassageLuXe offers services to help clients relax, remove pain and restore health. Learn how you can start your massage franchise and join the expanding spa industry.

While circumstances prevent an in-person Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, a special week-long streaming event honoring the list recipients will begin on October 19. From special recognition to seminars with the world’s most successful entrepreneurs to education sessions and entertainment, it will be a worthy ceremony.

The 2020 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2016 and 2019. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2016. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies — as of December 31, 2019.

As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Companies on the Inc. 500 are featured in Inc.’s September issue.
