E5 Inc. Recognized for 127% Three-Year Revenue Growth, Earning a Place Among the Nation's Most Successful Independent Businesses
PENDLETON, Ind., Aug. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- E5 Incorporated today announced it has been ranked 2,557 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.
"We are incredibly honored to be recognized among America's fastest-growing private companies," said Joe Shetterley, CEO and Founder of E5 Incorporated. "This achievement is a reflection of the people who believe in what we are building-our employees, customers, partners, and the contractors who trust E5 on their projects every day. We founded E5 with a simple but ambitious goal: to make concrete perform better, last longer, and ultimately change what is possible in our industry. To achieve 127% growth while continuing to invest in innovation, expand into new markets, and challenge conventional approaches to concrete is something our entire team can be proud of. But for us, this recognition isn't a finish line. We believe we are just getting started."
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.

We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement."
