SURYA SELECTED AS
GEORGIA FAST 40 HONOREE
CALHOUN, GA -
Surya has been named to the 2015 Georgia Fast 40 by ACG Atlanta, the Atlanta
Chapter of The Association for Corporate Growth (ACG), a global professional
organization focused on middle-market growth, mergers and acquisitions, and
private investment.
Each year, ACG
Atlanta honors the top 40 fastest growing middle-market companies in Georgia. To
be eligible for the award, companies must be for profit and headquartered in
Georgia; have recent year-end revenues ranging from $15 million to $500 million;
and demonstrate three years of verifiable revenue and employment growth.
Surya's
incremental expansion into multiple home accessory categories paired with
significant investment in marketing and technology tools, extensive inventory and one of the fastest fulfillment rates in the industry, have been
instrumental in the company's year-over-year double digit revenue growth. Surya
also continues to attract strong talent to its ranks, adding 100 jobs from 2012
to 2014, doubling its employee head count.
To take
advantage of manufacturing efficiencies and provide its customers with shorter
lead times, Surya has set a goal of producing 25 percent of its products
domestically by 2016. In support of this goal, the company recently introduced a
made-to-order rug program based out of its Calhoun location that guarantees
shipment of rugs in any size and shape within three weeks, and a U.S.-based
made-to-order art program that provides more than 800,000 possible artwork
configurations.
"Finding
ways to solve our retailer and designer customers' business challenges has
always been our top priority and what drives us to excellence," said Satya
Tiwari, president, Surya. "Every day, the Surya team works with one goal in
mind: to bring to market innovative new products and solutions that will help
our customers effectively compete in the market and build the most successful
home accessories business possible. It’s simple, but it works. I would like to
thank ACG Atlanta for this important recognition and our customers for their
continued support and loyalty."
The Georgia
Fast 40 award is one of several recent honors that Surya has received. Earlier
this year, the company was named to the Inc. 5000 list of the nation's fastest
growing privately-held companies for the fourth consecutive year, and Satya
Tiwari has been selected as a Southeast region finalist for the EY Entrepreneur
Of The Year Award for the second year running.
In 2015, Surya
will open a one million square foot state-of-the-art corporate headquarters and
distribution center in Cartersville, GA - providing a new home for its 300+
employees and bringing an estimated 200 new jobs to the region.
