Fora Financial has once again been featured in Inc.com’s list of the 5000 fastest-growing private companies nationwide. This marks the third consecutive year Fora Financial has made the Inc. 5000 list, during which the company has grown revenue by approximately 240%.

Since its inception in 2008, Fora Financial has provided over $500 million of capital to more than 10,000 small business owners throughout all 50 states. The company was founded by college roommates Jared Feldman and Dan Smith, who had a passion for helping small businesses. Feldman says the company’s continued growth is largely due to its dedicated employees and family-like culture.

“When we first started, the success of the business was more dependent on the product and the organic growth rates of the industry,” he says. “But the continued success over the last several years is due to our people, and we have a team that most envy.”

It has been a successful year thus far for Fora Financial, as the company has achieved several significant accomplishments. The company was featured on the January/February cover of deBanked magazine, closed a $52.5 million expanded credit facility in May, and reached the $500 million funding goal just shy of its 8-year anniversary in July.
