Office Furniture Installation Company Posts 57% Growth in November. InstallNET CEO Dale Ewing attributes this successful growth, in especially challenging financial times, to several factors.

Chicago, IL, January 06, 2008 --"(PressReleasePoint)"-- InstallNET, a Maryland-based network of independent commercial office furniture installation companies across North America, has been recognized as a high-growth private company by the Entrex Private Company Index (PCI), a benchmarking index that measures the monthly performance of private companies in North America.

The Entrex PCI gave InstallNET its monthly Top Growth Award for November 2008, based on the company’s 57 percent increase in revenue over the same month last year.

InstallNET CEO Dale Ewing attributes this successful growth, in especially challenging financial times, to several factors.

“To better serve our Fortune 1000 customers, InstallNET has expanded our services to include OfficeMoveNET commercial relocation management, and we have developed a strategic partnership with ANEW – (Asset Network for Education Worldwide),” said Ewing. ANEW is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to collecting, organizing and repurposing surplus furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) for donation to the underserved and those who support them.

“With the economy in a tailspin, ANEW is a fantastic resource for major corporations that are physically downsizing and want to meet their environmental, fiscal, and corporate social responsibility goals. In addition to providing much needed FF&E to schools, non-profit and community agencies, ANEW moves surplus away from landfills, saves firms money in disposal costs, and provides donors with a tax receipt for their donation. All these factors add up to an incredible opportunity for long term sustained growth.”

Stephen H. Watkins, CEO of Entrex, a Chicago-based sponsor of the Private Company Index, said that mid-market private firms like InstallNET, and others on the Index, are among the companies that are still driving growth in the economy--even today.

The PCI issues this Top Growth Award each month and presents the Top Ten Growth Company Award each quarter.
