Inc. magazine has revealed DQS Solutions & Staffing in Detroit ranks No. 1 in Michigan and No. 22 overall on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America.
The ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment — its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armor, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“The growth we’ve experienced since our launch is remarkable,” says John Debono, co-founder of DQS. “Reaching 22nd nationally and 1st in Michigan in such a short period of time is beyond my wildest expectations and I can’t wait to see what our future holds.”
Beyond exponential revenue growth since its inception, DQS Solutions & Staffing has been continuously adding to its client portfolio as well as its array of business solutions.
Over the past year alone, DQS says it has vastly expanded its security operations, increased its warehousing footprint, and even created DQ Station, an onsite food truck for DQS employees.
“What we’ve been able to achieve in the past four years is nothing short of incredible,” says Josh Morris, co-founder of DQS. “This honor is a testament to the hard work that our team has put in since the beginning. I couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve accomplished together.”
Among the solutions offered by DQS is its new Key Management System, which is designed to expedite and “revolutionize” the way vehicle keys are handled and secured for car porting operations.
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and hiring challenges.
Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
