    SAWTST is a logistics and IT services company founded in 2006. The company experienced 428 percent growth in the past three years, with 2012 revenues totaling $5.1 million. Currently employing 50 people, the company added 35 of those jobs in the past three years.

Revenues in 2012 totaled $16.4 million, up from $4.2 million in 2009. The company has 23 employees with 16 of those jobs added in the past three years.

    Powersports Marketing provides marketing services for motorcycle and automotive dealers across the U.S. Powersports was founded in 2004 and saw 2012 revenues of $2.4 million, up from revenues of $631,096 in 2009.

    Rounding out the local companies on the list is Aventure Aviation, providing aviation parts, supplies and maintenance services to clients worldwide.

    “The National Center for the Middle Market describes companies such as those on the Inc. 5000 as ‘model links’ in corporate supply chains. In a period of uncertainty and frequent shocks, their ability to deliver improves corporate customers’ resiliency. These businesses make and keep American companies competitive. Within their niches, they are as innovative and service-oriented as the most beloved household names. But rather than strategize to build brands, they earn reputations simply by virtue of how well they do what they do. They grow reference by reference until every customer in their markets knows whom to call,” according to Inc. magazine, noting that performance is the thing all the Inc. 5000 companies have in common.
