Top 2% Growth: Clickstop Ranks No. 138 Among Fastest-Growing Companies in the Midwest

In business, a single year of growth is a win, but a streak of years on the Inc. Regionals list proves something. At No. 138, Clickstop has secured its spot as one of the fastest-growing private companies in the Midwest for the third consecutive year—proving that a disciplined approach to fundamentals and a focus on people produces national-level results.

In a territory that spans 12 states and thousands of innovative businesses, this ranking is a data-driven validation of the momentum we’ve built over the last two decades. But for us, the “why” and “how” behind the growth is just as important as the numbers themselves.

Sustaining Growth Through Discipline

Achieving a spot on this list requires more than just a good year; it requires a system that can scale. Between 2022 and 2024, the companies on this year’s list saw a median growth rate of 69%. At Clickstop, our path to that growth has stayed rooted in the fundamentals that have guided us for 20 years.

“Our growth is the direct result of discipline. For two decades, we’ve focused on empowering our team, scaling profitably, and getting our customers what they want, when they need it. We look for top talent with a high ceiling because when you align high-growth people with a high-growth strategy, both win.”
– Tim Guenther, Founder & CEO, Clickstop

More Than Just a Ranking

This recognition isn’t just about revenue; it’s about the impact we’re making in our own backyard.

Collectively, the honorees on this list added more than 8,000 jobs and $5.2 billion to the Midwest economy.

For us, that impact is driven by our 240+ employee-owners across our portfolio of five brands, including our flagship, US Cargo Control. By maintaining a unique employee-ownership (ESOP) structure, we ensure that as the company grows, the people who drive that success share in the rewards. It’s a relationship built on shared purpose.

What’s Next?

Being named a growth engine for the Midwest is an honor, but as we often say, this isn’t the destination. Where we are isn’t where we’re going. We are energized by the challenge of creating even more opportunities for our team to grow as we build something great together.

Whether we are optimizing our inventory to meet customer demand or bringing in new talent to join our award-winning culture, we remain focused on the systems that got us here.
