Bulu secures 2nd year on the Inc. 5000

LINCOLN, Neb. - Aug. 29, 2018 - PRLog -- Inc. magazine ranked Bulu on its 37^th annual Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. Bulu is among six Lincoln, Nebraska, area companies to earn a ranking on the 2018 list. According to the list, Bulu is the fastest growing company 100% located in Lincoln.

"I'm so proud of our Warehouse Team, Office Team and our community –  they are the reason we're on the list again this year. Over seven years ago when we first launched Bulu Box, we had no idea we would end up building Subscription Box programs for brands like BuzzFeed, Crayola and Discovery Channel. It's the knowledge, grit, and passion of our team that lands us new Partners and awards like this, and it's amazing to share these victories together," said Bulu CEO Paul Jarrett.

"Bulu has been a great partner in helping us launch Lunarly, a moon-based self-care subscription service featuring different plants. They enabled us to launch quickly and provided the turn-key solution we were searching for," said David Parnes, Head of Operations and Finance at BuzzFeed Commerce.

Since 2016, Bulu builds and manages Subscription Box programs for select partners including lululemon. Bulu launched their first product, Bulu Box, in 2012 as the first health and wellness Subscription Box on the market. Bulu ranked no. 1899 on the 2017 Inc. 5000 list.

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.

"If your company is on the Inc. 5000, it's unparalleled recognition of your years of hard work and sacrifice," says Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter. "The lines of business may come and go, or come and stay. What doesn't change is the way entrepreneurs create and accelerate the forces that shape our lives."
