"The Inc. 5000 is a key resource for industry pundits to monitor the growth of established private companies and see what newcomers and service offerings are taking off in the marketplace," said Inc. 5000 project manager Jim Melloan. "Our list is always well received and this year's list provides great insight into how America's private companies are navigating economic ups and downs."

Since its inception in 2001, Ryla has grown tremendously in revenue and employee size. Earlier this year, the Atlanta Business Chronicle recognized this growth and named Ryla the fastest growing privately-held company in the Atlanta metropolitan area. Georgia Trend also named Ryla as the fastest-growing company on its Mid-Market Fast 40 listing.

Earlier this year, California-based Alorica, Inc., a national and international player in the customer care services industry, announced that it was making a strategic investment in Ryla. The deal will enable both Alorica and Ryla to receive the synergies that come with growing an international customer care services company.

"Our employees' efforts to make Ryla a great company are the reason we've had so much success and risen through the ranks of this prestigious listing," said Mark Wilson, founder and chief executive officer of Ryla. "Being a part of the Inc. 5000 listing is a great honor I'm proud to acknowledge our team's hard work in helping us achieve this recognition."
