137 Arizona Companies Named to the 2025 Inc. 5000 List; Several Local Construction Firms Stand Out

Quick take: 137 Arizona-based firms earned spots on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list, which ranks private U.S. companies by percentage revenue growth over the three-year span from 2021 to 2024. The list includes a wide mix of industries, and a notable share of construction-related businesses from across the state appeared among the fast growers.

What the ranking measures and who qualifies

The ranking is based on percentage revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. To qualify a business must have been founded and already earning revenue by March 31, 2021. Eligible firms must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent (not a subsidiary or division) as of December 31, 2024. Minimum revenue thresholds were also set: at least $100,000 in 2021 and at least $2 million in 2024.

Top-level context for Arizona

Arizona entries on the list span tech, healthcare, retail, financial services, and construction. Among the highest local growth rates were advertising and software firms, but construction companies of various sizes also made the list, from builders and design-build shops to specialty trades and manufacturers that serve the built environment. Several firms reported their first appearance on the list in 2025.

Notable construction-related companies and rankings

The list includes established builders, specialty contractors, and construction service firms from Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Chandler, Goodyear and other Arizona towns. Select construction-related entries and their reported three-year growth rates include:

Other Arizona businesses with ties to construction supply and services

Beyond pure builders, several firms that supply construction projects or serve built systems also appeared on the list. These include manufacturers, logistics companies, engineering firms, and specialty service providers located across the state.

Why this matters for the construction sector

Companies on the list signal shifting demand and investment in local construction markets. Growing contractors may expand staff, add new trades, or invest in equipment and facilities. Growth among materials suppliers and systems firms can ease pressure on project timelines if capacity keeps pace. On the flip side, fast growth can strain labor pipelines and supply chains unless firms plan ahead.

Timing and next steps for honorees

Inc. will hold a conference and gala for the honorees from October 22–24, 2025, to be hosted in Phoenix. The top 500 companies on the list will also appear in a fall magazine feature. For firms and industry watchers, the list provides a searchable view of honorees by industry and location and can serve as a source for benchmarking and partnership scouting.

Methodology reminders

Remember that the list is based on percentage revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. Minimum revenue floors were required. Also, the roster reflects a specific cutoff date (December 31, 2024) and some companies may have since gone public, been acquired, or otherwise changed status.
