More than 200 transportation and logistics companies have made the 2023 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing privately held firms in the U.S. 

According to Inc., these companies saw 227% median growth, generated $38.4 billion in revenue and added 30,699 jobs. Of the 216 on the list, 150 are repeat honorees.  

To qualify for the list, companies must be U.S.-based, founded by March 31, 2019, privately held, for-profit and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies. The minimum revenue required for 2022 was $2 million. Inc. ranked 5,000 companies by percentage of revenue growth from 2019 to 2022.
