iFLEET Continues String of High Growth AwardsATLANTA, May 1 For the second year in a row, The Atlanta Business Chronicle selected iFLEET, Inc., a leading information services company for commercial and automotive fleets, in its annual Pacesetters Awards recognizing Atlanta's fastest-growing private companies. This year, iFLEET ranked fourth and holds the distinction of being the only company in the top 10 for two consecutive years. Criteria for the Pacesetters Awards include having more than 10 full-time employees, total sales between $1 million and $500 million and a three-year growth in sales of more than 50 percent. Companies are ranked by a growth index formula that takes into consideration the size of the company. iFLEET's revenue has increased 98 percent in the past year, placing it in the top five category. The growth was due to the expansion of its Internet based service offerings.
