With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 1,309 Percent, This Marks The Garen Group's 1st Time on the List
ORLANDO, Fla., Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that The Garen Group is No. 295 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy's most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia.
"People say never work with family," says Brenton Garen, Founder, The Garen Group. "The Garen Group is living proof that's bad advice. By combining the trust, passion, and accountability of a family business with industry-leading marketing systems, we've created something rare. This ranking isn't just a milestone—it's a testament to the fact that family can scale and succeed together at the highest level."
"Our growth is a direct reflection of our clients' success. We've built The Garen Group on a simple but powerful principle: if our clients win, we win. Ranking No. 295 on the Inc. 5000 is proof that doing the right thing—like working exclusively with one client per market—pays off in ways bigger than revenue. It builds trust, loyalty, and momentum that can't be bought."
This year's Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

"Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company's tenacity and clarity of vision," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn't just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy."
Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 22–24 in Phoenix, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. magazine.
From 2018 to 2021, The Garen Group went from zero to $250,000 in annual revenue before Brenton hired his first full-time hire - his dad Frank as head of sales in summer 2021.
By 2023, brothers Liam and Mitch joined the agency as account managers, and brother-in-law Mike Dean became an account manager the following year.
"In 2024, we had scaled to $3.7 million in revenue," Garen says. "That kind of growth doesn't happen by accident—it comes from an obsessive focus on client results, a refusal to cut corners, and a team that treats every campaign like it's our own business on the line."
Methodology
Companies on the 2025 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2021. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2024.
