Cleveland, Ohio August 11, 2026 – Redmond Waltz today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000, an annual list of the fastest growing private companies in America, ranking 28th in Cleveland, 153rd in Manufacturing, 127th in the state of Ohio, and No. 4804 in the nation.. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation's most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.

"This recognition means a great deal because it reflects the work that's been happening inside Redmond Waltz for the past several years. We've invested in our people, challenged ourselves to think differently and created a culture that embraces change while staying true to the values that have defined this company for almost 80 years. None of this happens without an incredible team or the customers who continue to put their trust in us. While it's exciting to be recognized on a national stage, we're focused on continuing to build a company that's even stronger for the future."
