Ranks #240 on Inc. magazine's listing of the 500 fastest growing, privately held companies in the United States.

Peak 10, a data center operator, today announced that it was named to Inc. magazine's annual Inc. 500 ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the country.

Peak 10 makes the list for the second consecutive year at number 240 with a three year growth rate of 529 percent. Following its recent acquisition of Nashville-based RenTech, Peak 10 owns and operates eight data centers in six strategic markets. One of its past acquisitions, Louisville-based Xodiax, made the Inc. 500 in 2004.

"We are again honored to be recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the 500 fastest growing private companies in the nation” said David H. Jones, President and Chief Executive Officer for Peak 10. "The growth required to make a prestigious list like the Inc. 500 for the second year in a row is a clear indicator of Peak 10's market leadership and that our long-standing strategy of placing a high priority on localized customer support and service is on target."

"If you want to find out which companies are going to change the world, look at the Inc. 500," said Inc. Editor Jane Berentson. "These are the most innovative, dynamic, fast-growth companies in the nation, the ones coming up with solutions to some of our most intractable ills, creating systems that let us conduct business faster and easier, and manufacturing products we soon discover we can't live without. The Inc. 500 list is Inc. magazine's tribute to American business ingenuity and ambition."
