October 2003 - Strategic Data Systems has been named one
of America’s entrepreneurial growth leaders by the renowned
Inc. magazine for the second consecutive year.
Strategic Data Systems was ranked number 265 of 500 of the
nation’s fastest growing private companies.“In any year,
a successful nomination to the Inc. 500 is a unique honor.
This year, the companies that have made the list are a rare
breed indeed - enterprises that have continued to prosper at
extraordinary rates through tough economic times”, stated
Lee Jones, Vice President and Publisher of Inc.
magazine. Strategic Data Systems achieved 670 percent growth
over the past five years with sales climbing from $1,022,000
in 1998 to $7,864,000 in 2002.
Started in 1982, the Inc.500 ranks the nation’s
leading entrepreneurial firms according to sales growth over
the previous five years. Many former Inc.500
companies have gone on to become household names, such as
Microsoft, Oracle, Intuit, Timberland, Domino’s Pizza, and
E*Trade.
“It is quite an accomplishment to be included in Inc.
Magazine’s prestigious ranking for the 2nd year in a row,”
stated Jim Christopher, President of Strategic Data Systems.
“Superior performance and commitment to customer
satisfaction are the critical factors that have enabled our
continued success. This recognition reaffirms our corporate
values – that dedicating ourselves to the success of our
customers and employees, and maintaining integrity in the
way we run our business ultimately leads to success. Our
employees make the difference and this honor is shared with
each of them”.
In addition to this recognition, Strategic Data Systems
was recently acknowledged by The San Diego Business
Journal as the 15th Fastest Growing Private
Company in San Diego County.
