TAMARAC, FL, September 02, 2010 (Press-News.org) Inc. magazine ranked PuroClean No. 1579 on its fourth annual Inc. 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-minded entrepreneurs.

"The leaders of the companies on this year's Inc. 5000 have figured out how to grow their businesses during the longest recession since the Great Depression," said Inc. president Bob LaPointe. "The 2010 Inc. 5000 showcases a particularly hardy group of entrepreneurs."

PuroClean has been named among Inc.'s 5000 fastest-growing private companies every year since the ranking's inception in 2006. The company moved up in rank this year from No. 2058 in 2009 and is also the fastest-growing franchise in the property damage restoration industry.

"It' the strength and dedication of our franchise network that allows us to grow exponentially year over year," said Lauren Reid, CEO and President of PuroClean. "We're honored to be named among this list of esteemed, rising companies."

Last year alone, PuroClean opened 89 new franchise locations and reported more than $90 million in system-wide revenues, up from $68 million in 2008. Most impressive were sales gains at existing franchise locations, up an astounding 31 percent from 2008 to 2009. The company also debuted a new Canadian headquarters, opened its 300th franchise location and achieved the highest customer experience performance rating in the industry, with a 93 percent Net Promoter Score .
