Inc. magazine today revealed that Conti Federal has placed on its fourth annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: Southeast list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the southeast, consisting of Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Puerto Rico. Born of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise, this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the Southeast economy’s most dynamic segment–its independent small businesses.
“Our growth as an organization is a testament to our team’s unwavering commitment to progress,” shares Conti Federal CEO, Peter Ceribelli. “Building one of the fastest growing private companies isn’t just about speed; it’s about harnessing the power of innovation, adaptability, and relentless determination to redefine what’s possible. Together, we’re not just chasing success; we’re defining it.”
The companies on this list show a remarkable rate of growth across all industries in the Southeast region. Between 2020 and 2022, these 223 private companies had an average growth rate of 166.43 percent; by 2023, they’d also added 20,496 jobs and $8.8 billion to the region’s economy.

Methodology
The 2024 Inc. 5000 Regionals are ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2020 and 2022. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2022. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2022 is $1 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
