Inc. today revealed that Gierd has been ranked No. 1 on its sixth annual Inc. Regionals: Rocky Mountains list.

SANDPOINT, ID, UNITED STATES, March 31, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today revealed that Gierd has been ranked No. 1 on its sixth annual Inc. Regionals: Rocky Mountains list – the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the Rocky Mountains. The region includes Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado.

An extension of the national Inc. 5000 list, the Regionals list offers a data-driven look at the independent small businesses driving growth across the Rocky Mountains economy. Companies on this year’s list demonstrate exceptional revenue expansion, resilience, and job creation during a challenging economic period.

"Ranking number one on the Inc. Regionals list validates what our customers already know — marketplace commerce demands a new operating system,” said Jon Pederson, Gierd’s Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer. "Gierd is that system, giving enterprise brands the data, intelligence, and control to turn marketplaces from a black box into a competitive advantage."

Between 2022 and 2024, these 69 private companies had a median growth rate of 118 percent; by 2024, they’d also added 5,364 jobs and $1.4 billion to the region’s economy.

Complete results of the Inc. Regionals: Rocky Mountains, including company profiles and an interactive database sortable by industry and metro area, will be available beginning March 31 at: https://www.inc.com/regionals/rocky-mountain.

“The honorees on this year’s Inc. Regionals list achieved exceptional growth at a time when the odds were against them. Amid inflation, supply chain disruptions, and ongoing economic uncertainty, they didn't just persevere – they innovated, adapted, and thrived. Their resilience made them standouts in their industries and true growth engines in their regions,” said Bonny Ghosh, editorial director at Inc.

Methodology
The Inc. Regionals lists are ranked according to percentage revenue growth over two years. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2022. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2024. (Since then, a number of companies on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2022 is $100,000; the minimum for 2024 is $1 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
