Point of Rental Software was named to Inc. Magazine’s Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States for the second year in a row and third time in four years. With a three-year growth of 125 percent, POR made it to No. 2750.

Point of Rental’s growth in the past three years includes new teams in Reading, England, and Melbourne, Australia, and the company now has more than 100 employees. POR CEO Wayne Harris credits the company’s success to its customers, some of which are also Inc. 5000 listees, and their commitment to growth and demand for excellence.

“We’re proud to be listed among the top private companies in the country,” said Harris. “Being in that group in back-to-back years shows that our team is pushing the envelope and, more importantly, that our customers feel they’re getting value when they join the Point of Rental family.”

This year’s Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue is $206 billion, and the companies on the list collectively generated 619,500 jobs during the past three years.
