NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, Texas - Aug. 20, 2014 - PRLog -- NEW YORK, August 20, 2014 -- Inc. magazine today ranked OpenRoad Lending, a direct-to-consumer auto finance company, No. 37 on its 33rd annual Inc. 500|5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies.  The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs. Companies such as Yelp, Pandora, Timberland, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, LinkedIn, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained early exposure as members of the Inc. 500|5000.

"We are excited to have achieved this important distinction and to be listed among some of the greatest companies in the country.”  Said Chris Goodman, President and CEO of OpenRoad Lending.  “The growth and success that we have had and continue to enjoy are a tribute to our hard working employees and company commitment to help consumers all over the country either save money on their current auto loan by refinancing or to help them realize the dream of owning that new or pre-owned car, truck or SUV they’ve always wanted.”

The 2014 Inc. 5000, unveiled online at Inc.com and with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc. (available on newsstands August 20 to November 30), is the most competitive crop in the list’s history.  The average company on the list achieved a mind-boggling three-year growth of 516%.  The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue is $211 billion, generating 505,000 jobs over the past three years.  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.

"What surprises me, even though I know it’s coming, is the sheer variety of the paths our entrepreneurs take to success, thematically reflecting how our economy has evolved,” says Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg.  “This year there are far more social media and far fewer computer hardware businesses than there were, say, six years ago.  But what doesn’t change is the fearsome creativity unleashed by American entrepreneurship.”
