Durante Rentals, with branches in Bronx, Queens (Flushing), and Westchester (Mount Vernon), N.Y., was listed on Inc. magazine’s list of the 5,000 fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States. The company, founded in 2009, is ranked No. 1,879, and No. 61 in the construction industry.
Inc. bases its ranking on revenue growth from 2009 to 2012. Durante Rentals posted $1.6 million in revenue in 2009, its first year in existence. Durante tripled that number in 2012, with $4.8 million in revenue. Durante added 18 jobs in the period, growing from seven employees to 25.
“We cannot be happier with the numbers we attained to make the Inc. 5000,” said John Durante, president of Durante Rentals. “We started Durante in 2009 during the worst economic conditions in our lifetimes and with a little hard work and a lot of dedication we’ve somehow turned our dream into a great company. To achieve these numbers we’ve literally had to grow and expand almost every single day. This hyper growth has made it very exciting to get up and go to work every day!”
Durante Rentals was founded by and is still led by John Durante; Anthony Durante, sales manager; and Chris Jones, chief financial officer.
