Symark was ranked 47th with an increase of +44% growth in revenue during the period from 2000-2002.

The Los Angeles Business Journal’s list of the top 100 fastest growing private companies is a measure of revenue gains from 2000-2002, as a percentage. To be considered, companies must be privately held, for-profit ventures headquartered in Los Angeles County (including Westlake Village and Thousand Oaks) that have been in business since at least January 1, 2000.
