Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) August 18, 2017 -- HighJump, a global provider of supply chain solutions, today announces it has ranked no. 1,118 in Inc. Magazine’s 36th annual Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. Growing 375 percent over the last three years, HighJump’s ranking stemmed from its ongoing dedication to providing its customers across the globe with the solutions and service needed to stay competitive in today’s increasingly complex supply chain landscape. The company also placed 10th and 11th for Minneapolis and Minnesota companies respectively.
“From technological advances to globalization, this is an exciting time for the supply chain industry,” said Mike Cornell, CEO at HighJump. “Our continued and rapid growth recognized by the Inc. 5000 exemplifies our commitment to meeting supply chain professionals’ unique needs and enabling them to thrive today and in the future.”

President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. “The founders and CEOs of the Inc. 5000 tell us they think determination, risk taking, and vision were the keys to their success, and I believe them.”
