Leading global commerce marketing company joins the magazine’s annual list for the second consecutive year
DETROIT, (August 13, 2024) – Mars UnitedSM Commerce, a global commerce marketing company, today announced it was named to Inc. Magazine’s annual Inc. 5000 list, one of the most prestigious rankings of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The recognition marks the second consecutive year that the company has made the Inc. list.
The achievement reflects another year of exceptional success for Mars United, which has grown substantially by adding major new clients, significantly expanding its scope with existing clients, and making key acquisitions that have both enhanced its capabilities portfolio and extended its global footprint.
“We’re honored to be named among Inc.’s fastest growing companies and particularly pleased to have made the list for two straight years,” said Rob Rivenburgh, Global CEO of Mars United Commerce. “We believe the repeat recognition shows that we have the right mix of expert commerce marketing services and breakthrough technology — combined with the right mission: to make each client’s business better today than it was yesterday.”

“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “Congratulations to this year’s honorees for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”
Inc. 5000 Methodology
Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies — as of December 31, 2023. The minimum revenue required for 2020 was $100,000; the minimum for 2023 was $2 million. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places. The top 500 companies on the Inc. 5000 are featured in the magazine’s September issue. The entire Inc. 5000 can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000.
