QUINCY, Mass. - Aug. 20, 2014 - PRLog -- Quincy, MA (August 20, 2014) – G-Force Shipping is honored to announce its ranking as the #1 logistics and transportation provider in Massachusetts by the Inc. 500|5000 annual “fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States” list.

In addition to taking home top honors in the Bay State in the logistics and transportation field, G-Force was ranked 8^th nationally within its business sector and 574^th overall for fastest-growing privately help companies in the nation.

In 1982, Inc. introduced the Inc. 500 list of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States. Since then, this prestigious list of the nation's most successful private companies has become the hallmark of entrepreneurial success and the place where future household names first make their mark. Pandora, 7 Eleven, Toys 'R' Us, Zipcar, Zappos.com and numerous other well-known brands have been honored by the Inc. 500|5000.

“It is an incredible honor to be recognized by Inc. 500|5000 as one of the nation’s fastest-growing privately held companies, joining the prestigious list of many of the country’s most recognizable brands since the award program was established over 30 years ago,” said G-Force Shipping CEO, Scott Guilbeault. “Taking home top honors in the logistics and transportation field here in Massachusetts is solely due to the unbelievable amount of hard work and dedication every G-Force employee has put in since company inception and I can’t thank them enough.”

In its first year of eligibility for the Inc. 500|5000 list, G-Force Shipping ranked just outside the top 500 fastest-growing privately held companies in the nation out of a pool of more than 26,000,000. Over the past 3 years, G-Force has grown its revenue 831%, tripled its employee roster and recently relocated from Norwell to Quincy to a new 17,500 sq. ft. office to accommodate the budding company’s rapid growth.

In addition to its recognition from Inc. 500|5000 for rapid company growth, in the past calendar year G-Force was named by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as one of the top 100 privately owned companies in the country and was recognized as a 2014 Pacesetter by the Boston Business Journal as one of Massachusetts’ 70 fastest growing private companies.
