This exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy-America's independent entrepreneurs.

"Now, more than ever, we depend on Inc. 500|5000 companies to spur innovation, provide jobs, and drive the economy forward. Growth companies, not large corporations, are where the action is," says Inc. magazine Editor Jane Berentson.

Celerant Command Retail continues to receive recognition as a real-time solution for retailers looking to manage every aspect of their businesses in one complete system.

Our technical advancements and understanding of the retail industry help to facilitate our growth as a company, as we continue toward future success."

The 2011 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2007 to 2010. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2007. Additionally, they had to be based in the United States, privately held, for profit, and independent-not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies-as of December 31, 2010. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2007 is $100,000; the minimum for 2010 is $2 million.
