Idaho companies among nation's fastest growing

September 14, 2011
Sixteen Idaho companies were among the fastest growing companies in the country during the last three years.

Those companies have had a significant impact on the economy, adding a total of 1,400 jobs during that time.

Scentsy, a Meridian-based firm, ranked in the top 100 with a 3-year growth of 2,904 percent. The company showed revenues of $381.8 million.

Other top companies on the list include Balihoo (Boise), Alligator Diesel Performance (Coeur d’Alene), Valued Merchant Services (Idaho Falls), Sunshine Minting (Coeur d’Alene), ScotteVest (Ketchum) and Bodybuilding.com (Meridian) – all with more than 100 percent growth in that time period.

Of course, the bigger the company, the more difficult it is to achieve double-digit growth. That makes the 81 percent growth of Portage, an engineering services company in Idaho Falls, all the more impressive. The company showed revenues of $245.3 million.

North Wind, another Idaho Falls engineering firm, showed revenues of $93.3 million and a 3-year growth of 43 percent.

Others on the list were: EcoAnalysts (Moscow), Porter’s Office Products (Rexburg), PolicyTech (Rexburg), Economic Modeling Specialists (Moscow), Fisher’s Document Systems (Boise), Pita Pit USA (Coeur d’Alene), and Flying Pie Pizzaria (Boise).
