SAN FRANCISCO, CA — August 29, 2007 — PhilippeBecker Design (PBD), a Bay Area branding and packaging agency, today announced that Inc. Magazine named it to its list of America's 5000 fastest-growing companies. PBD ranked number 2,029 on the list, with three-year sales growth of over 176 percent.

"PBD has grown consistently since its founding because of the quality of our team and of our client relationships. We truly partner with our clients while building their brands. Our low staff turnover means we develop and retain an extraordinary understanding of our clients' business needs and opportunities, which leads in turn to their exceptional loyalty," said David Becker, PBD President.

The Inc. 5,000 is a comprehensive look at the critical entrepreneurial segment of the U.S. economy. Companies on the Inc. 5000 list have total revenue of $199.58 billion and an estimated total employment of 942,224.

The 2007 Inc. 500 list measures revenue growth from 2003 through 2006. To qualify, companies had to be U.S.-based and privately held, independent – not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies – as of December 31, 2006, and have had at least $200,000 in revenue in 2003, and $2 million in 2006. This year, Inc. expanded the Inc. 500 list tenfold, to create the first-ever Inc. 5,000. Complete results of the Inc. 5,000 can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.
