Kinston, North Carolina-based part 135 operator flyExclusive is number 2,941 on the annual Inc 5000 list. The list is a ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America, whereon Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft and Patagonia are just a few of the well-known names that gained their first national exposure.

“This recognition is a testament to the incredible work our team is accomplishing every single day for our customers,” says founder and ceo Jim Segrave. “To be seen as one of the fastest growing privately-owned American companies as well as ranking in the top 20 in the travel and hospitality sector speaks to the first-in-class experience our customers receive every time they set foot on a flyExclusive jet.”

The companies on the 2022 Inc 5000 have not only been successful, but have also demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labour shortages and the ongoing impact of COVID. Among the top 500, the average median three year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 per cent. Together, those companies have added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three years.

“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the US, in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Inc editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk.
