Durante Makes Inc.5000 Fastest-Growing for Third Straight Year
Inc. Magazine has ranked Durante Rentals #1869 on its 34th annual Inc. 5000 list, accompanying Nickell Rentals also ranked on the list. The Inc. 5000 list is an exclusive ranking of the 5,000 fastest-growing privately owned companies in the United States.
This is the third consecutive year Durante Rentals was named to the prestigious list. Durante was ranked #2098 in 2014 and #1879 in 2013.
Durante Rentals’ three-year growth was 212 percent, and the company added 27 new jobs to the local New York economy.
“Consistent and steady growth is difficult to maintain,” said Christopher Jones, chief financial officer of Durante Rentals. “We are extremely proud of our team and how year after year they somehow find another gear to improve financial performance without losing the camaraderie, corporate culture and values which are so important to us. In the end, it’s all about our people.”
Durante Rentals has branches in The Bronx, Mt. Vernon, Elmsford, and Queens, N.Y., serving all five New York City boroughs, Westchester and Rockland Counties, Connecticut and New Jersey.
