When it comes to a company that stimulates the local economy with continuous expansion and hiring, look no further than Holts Summit, MO. That’s where PFSbrands is located, and for the 9th consecutive year it has been named one of INC. 5000’s Fastest Growing Privately Held Companies in the United States.
According to INC. Media, PFSbrands, with its hot food programs Champs Chicken and Cooper’s Express, is in an exclusive group. Out of the thousands of companies that have applied over the years, a mere half a percent made the list nine times. Likewise, while the economy has grown 6.3 percent since 2013, the companies on the INC. 5000 list have grown sixfold. This has all lead to local economic stimulation with structural expansion and the creation of dozens of new positions. An additional 27,000 square foot corporate office is currently under construction, allowing room for even more expansive growth.
This growth, according to CEO Shawn Burcham, can be attributed to the team-first culture and dedication to support that has made PFSbrands what it is today. Burcham explained, “People ask me all the time what’s the secret behind the success at PFSbrands. I consistently tell them that it’s the people we have that make all the difference. Our team provides fanatical support to our retailers and that is what continues to drive our success and will continue to do so long into the future.” If you would like more information about PFSbrands, their turn-key foodservice programs, and career opportunities visit PFSbrands.com.
