Company Recognized for 69% Three-Year Revenue Growth, Earning a Place Among the Nation’s Most Successful Independent Businesses

[Syracuse, NY] August 11, 2026 – Pinnacle Family of Companies today announced it has been ranked No. 3786 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.


"This recognition is a testament to the dedication of our employees and the loyalty of our clients,” says Gregg Kidd, CEO of Pinnacle Holding Company. “Over the past 30 years, we've worked to build more than a collection of companies—we've built a family of businesses committed to helping people and organizations succeed. We're honored to be included among the nation's fastest-growing private companies and look forward to continuing to build on that momentum."


This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

“Every company on the Inc. 5000 has a story of perseverance, smart decision making, and a refusal to sit still,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Their growth reflects more than strong financial performance–it reflects creativity, resilience, and the customer focus required to build companies that make a lasting impact. We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement.”
