Healthy revenue
Dallas-area business aces the test as 4th fastest-growing U.S. company, Inc. says
As one of the country’s largest providers of COVID-19 testing, Mansfield-based eTrueNorth has witnessed a whirlwind of activity since the 2020 onset of the pandemic. That whirlwind has contributed to explosive growth for the business.
Founded in 2013, eTrueNorth ranks fourth on Inc. magazine’s new list of the country’s 5,000 fastest-growing private companies. From 2018 to 2021, eTrueNorth saw explosive growth in revenue, posting a 42,428 percent growth rate. Aside from being fourth in revenue growth among U.S. private companies, eTrueNorth ranks first among Texas companies on the list and second among health care companies on the list.
The company specializes in providing point-of-care testing at pharmacies across the U.S.
“Our hard work to make health care more accessible is paying off for the American people. Patients value the convenience, while health plans appreciate the novel opportunity for addressing gaps in care,” Coral May, co-founder and CEO of eTrueNorth, says in a news release about the Inc. 5000 recognition.
