Sandwell’s Top 50 fastest growing companies

Every year since 2015, Think Sandwell has released a report listing Sandwell’s 50 fastest growing companies in turnover terms. We celebrated those businesses’ achievements and thanked them for their huge contribution to Sandwell’s economy and employment landscape.

We recognise that, since the coronavirus outbreak, merely sustaining a business presents a big enough challenge – let alone growing one. So our 2020 report is different from previous versions. It celebrates not only business success in the borough, but the heroic efforts made by Sandwell businesses to pivot their offering, support frontline efforts, and sustain or even create jobs during such a difficult time. We hope you find it inspiring.

Read the report and find out:

  • Which companies made it into the Top 50 Fastest Growing Companies Index
  • Who rallied around our communities during the peak of the Covid-19 crisis
  • Which businesses are thriving despite only starting out in 2019.
