Inc. names CRDN to list of fastest-growing businesses

August 24, 2010

BERKLEY, MI, AUGUST 24, 2010 – For the fourth year in a row, Inc. magazine has named the Certified Restoration Drycleaning Network (CRDN) as one of America’s fastest-growing private companies.

Founded in 2001, CRDN has reported double-digit revenue growth each year, which has resulted from ongoing education of the insurance industry about the overall benefits and cost-effectiveness of restoring damaged garments and textiles instead of replacing them.  CRDN specializes in restoring textile items damaged by smoke, fire, water, mold or other contaminants.  Covering 95% of the U.S., CRDN has achieved an average success rate of 98%, saving insurance companies millions of dollars each year.

The Inc. 5,000, an extension of Inc. magazine’s annual Inc. 500 list, recognizes many businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

“We are extremely pleased to be acknowledged by Inc. magazine for the fourth straight year,” said Wayne Wudyka, CRDN’s founder and CEO.  “This recognition validates the continued efforts of our team at every level-from the corporate office to each local CRDN business-to understand the needs of the insurance industry and provide a valuable solution. 

“Our focus on education and highly professional service has enabled us to make a positive impact on the lives of those we serve, namely insurance adjusters and their customers,” Wudyka added.  “It is also very rewarding to be a part of noteworthy growth for each of our members coast-to-coast and to support their efforts to build sustainable, meaningful businesses.”

Complete information on this year’s Inc. 5,000, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.  The list features a profile for each company, almost all of them written as a result of Inc. interviews with management.  In addition, the list is searchable according to numerous criteria, including industry, city, state, region, and year founded.
