Earlier this week, Inc. Magazine revealed that Human Bees ranked number 46 on its third annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: Pacific list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies based in Alaska, Hawaii, California, Oregon, and Washington. An offshoot of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise—which ranked Human Bees at #1 a year ago—this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful private companies within the Pacific region economy generating sustainable growth and jobs.

“We are honored to be ranked among the top 50 companies regionwide!” said Geetesh Goyal, CEO and Founder of Human Bees. “This achievement is the result of the teamwork, dedication, and excellence of our entire staff. One of our favorite mottos is: ‘Human Bees are a lot like Human Beings, we just work harder.’ This is certainly true of our team. A huge thank you to all our hard-working hives, our community, and our clients for making this achievement possible.”

The companies on this list show a remarkable rate of growth across all industries in the Pacific. Between 2018 and 2020, these 150 private companies had an average growth rate of 195% percent and, in 2020 alone, they added 10,252 jobs and $5.1 billion to the Pacific region’s economy. Companies based in the Irvine, Santa Monica, and Venice, California, areas had the highest growth rate overall.
