Inc. magazine revealed that Terra Exports, an innovative global fresh fruit company, is No. 1,899 on this year’s 39th annual Inc. 5000 list —the most prestigious ranking of U.S. fastest-growing private companies.
Terra Exports has had an impressive four-year sales growth rate of 222 percent. Terra Exports also ranked No. 15 among the fastest-growing Nevada-based businesses on the list. This is Terra Exports’ third appearance on the Inc. 5000 list, previously ranking No. 1,587 in 2019’s list, and No. 923 in 2017’s list. Only one in eight Inc. 5000 companies have made the list three times.
“I'm very much blown away by this achievement," said Terra Exports’ CEO Nils Goldschmidt. "By now I've realized that I have little to do with Terra Exports' fantastic success, and that it's all thanks to the incredibly visionary and resilient group of people that make up this company. I'm so proud of them and their accomplishments!”
Earlier this year, Terra Exports hired a new chief financial officer, Laura Paternostro, to maintain a pulse over yearly growth. When asked about Terra Exports’ financial success, Paternostro said, “ We have an amazing team that has found new and innovative ways to not only keep sales up for the short term, but also help us grow in the future. We will continue to build on these strategies that changed the way we think as we continue to navigate through uncertain times and look towards the future.”
