G&A Partners Ranked Among Fastest Growing Private Companies Inc Magazine

HOUSTON—September 3, 2008—G&A Partners, a Houston-based outsourced human resource (HR) and administrative service provider, ranks once again among the Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America, according to Inc. Magazine.

G&A Partners, which was consecutively ranked among the Top 500 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in 2004 and 2005, is recognized again this year among the publication’s Top 5000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies for maintaining a healthy and sustainable level of growth. G&A has been included on the Inc. 5000 list since the magazine began publishing the expanded ranking. G&A’s niche with manufacturing companies, contractors and non-profits is a key contributor to the firm’s continuing growth.

“We are extremely pleased to again be named to Inc.’s prestigious list of fastest-growing private companies,” said Tony Grijalva, Chairman and CEO of G&A. “While our rate of growth has naturally tapered from previous years, G&A has consistently maintained strong, steady, triple-digit growth, and in fact, is becoming ever more formidable in our industry.”

Having achieved 121.5 percent annual growth in 2007, G&A did earn several notable rankings within Inc.’s list of Top 5000. The firm was ranked No. 81 in the Top 100 Inc. 5000 Companies by Revenue, and reached No. 87 in the Top 100 Inc. 5,000 Companies by Gross Dollars of Growth.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, G&A Partners is one of a number of Texas companies to make Inc. Magazine’s list.

G&A Partners was founded in 1995 by Antonio (“Tony”) R. Grijalva and John W. Allen. The company takes on integral HR and administrative functions for growing businesses and serves as co-employer for its clients’ employees. As experts in human resources, benefits, payroll, accounting and risk management, G&A relieves business owners of these responsibilities so they can focus more time on their core businesses.
