HOUSTON – October 7, 2020 – G&A Partners announced today that it has once again been included on the Inc. 5000 list, which recognizes the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S.
Headquartered in Houston, G&A Partners is one of only two companies nationwide—and the only Texas-based company—to have appeared on the list for 15 years.
In the past three years, G&A has achieved a growth rate of 125%, which has earned it the No. 3,097 spot on the list this year as compared to its 4,337 spot in 2019. Much of G&A’s growth is due to a series of acquisitions the firm has made, and the introduction of The Riverside Company as its first minority investor.
The announcement of G&A’s new partnership with Riverside was delivered with the news that the firm’s co-founder and CEO, Tony Grijalva, would retire on October 1. John W. Allen, G&A’s other co-founder and Grijalva’s partner for more than 25 years, is now the firm’s president and CEO.
The move to bring in a minority investor will provide G&A with the capital it needs to proceed with further expansion efforts as the company continues to deliver its world-class HR services and solutions to current and prospective clients, according to Allen.
“Our financial partners and we are optimistic about G&A’s future,” Allen said. “In three years, if we continue to grow organically and acquire other PEOs—successfully folding them into our firm—I’d like to think we’ll have more than 100,000 worksite employees. We are just outside that number now. Other PEOs are growing, too, but when we achieve our projected growth, we will be a more dominant player in the marketplace.”
