For the third consecutive time, We Sell Restaurants has earned a spot on the prestigious Inc. 5000 list, ranking No. 2,565 for 2024. This recognition celebrates the company’s remarkable three-year revenue growth of 80 percent and its position as one of America’s fastest-growing privately held companies.

The Inc. 5000 list offers a data-driven look at the most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses in the United States. Notable companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia have previously gained national attention as Inc. 5000 honorees. We Sell Restaurants’ continued inclusion highlights its role as a leader in the restaurant brokerage industry.

Robin Gagnon, CEO of We Sell Restaurants, shared her thoughts on the achievement: “This recognition on the Inc. 5000 for the third time is a testament to the hard work of our franchisees, brokers, and support team, as well as the trust of the restaurant owners and buyers we serve. Our 80% revenue growth over the past three years highlights the demand for specialized expertise in restaurant brokerage and our commitment to delivering exceptional results. As we continue to expand nationwide, we remain focused on helping entrepreneurs achieve their dreams, whether buying, selling, or franchising in this exciting industry.”

The 2024 Inc. 5000 class represents companies that have achieved rapid revenue growth despite facing challenges such as inflationary pressures, rising costs of capital, and workforce changes. Among the top 500 companies, the average median three-year growth rate was an impressive 1,637 percent. Collectively, all Inc. 5000 companies added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.

President Eric Gagnon added: “We are honored to once again be recognized on the Inc. 5000, which underscores the strength of our business model and the dedication of our team. This milestone reflects not only our growth but also our ability to adapt and thrive in a rapidly evolving market. We remain focused on providing unmatched service to restaurant buyers and sellers while continuing to innovate and lead in the industry.”

Methodology

Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
