 Boston, MA (April 8, 2022) — The Boston Business Journal has named Barrett Distribution Centers to its exclusive 2022 Fast 50 list, which represent the 50 fastest-growing private companies in Massachusetts.


“As a top logistics and fulfillment provider, we have expanded in the Northeast and beyond to service our customers from coast-to-coast,” said Tim Barrett, COO.  He continued, “The hard work and efforts of our employees has resulted in this sustained growth and we are honored to accept the Boston Business Journal’s Fast 50 honor in recognition.”


The Fast 50 companies are selected and ranked based on revenue growth from 2018 to 2021. The numbers are crunched and analyzed by the Business Journal’s research department.


"We are so happy to be able to celebrate this year's Fast 50 in person, bringing together the leaders, founders and professionals working at the region's fastest-growing private companies," said Carolyn M. Jones, market president and publisher of the Boston Business Journal.


A Fast 50 special publication is scheduled to run in the May 20 weekly edition of the Business Journal and online that week as well. A celebration to honor this year's Fast 50 is scheduled to be held on  at the Long Wharf Marriot, Boston, MA where the rankings will be released.

Companies on the Fast 50 must have their headquarters in Massachusetts and must have reported revenue of at least $500,000 in 2018 and $1 million in 2021 were considered.

When issues like late shipments and inventory snags accumulate, fulfillment becomes a stumbling block rather than a support system. Choosing the right 3PL is what prevents these problems from derailing your business.
