06.01.08 - Acquity Group ranks in the Top 15 on the 2008 Crain’s Fast 50

Acquity Group announced today that for the second consecutive year it has been named one of the fastest growing companies in Chicago by Crain’s Chicago Business.

With 2007 revenue of more than $54 million and notably profitable growth of 557% over the past four years, Acquity Group ranked 13th on the publication’s second annual list. The inclusion follows Acquity Group’s 2007 placement in the first annual “Fast 50” list.

According to the Crain’s article, “As more people shop online for everything from flights to T-shirts, companies need to update their Web sites. Acquity Group has benefited from the explosion of online sales, which have grown 273% since 2001.”

Acquity Group’s significant growth is founded on a long list of successful client projects designed to enhance some of the world’s most well-known brands. Since its start in 2001, Acquity Group has been helping major companies, such as American Airlines, McDonald’s and General Motors, redefine business processes and digital strategies to most effectively enhance growth and profitability.

“Being included on the Fast 50 list for the second time is a reflection of Acquity Group’s number one priority: using our business and technology expertise to make our clients more successful,” said Acquity Group CEO Chris Dalton. “Our success is a testament to the dedication and efforts of each Acquity Group employee.”

The Crain’s Fast 50 list is comprised of public and private companies headquartered in Chicago’s six-county area (Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will) with 2007 revenue of at least $20 million.
