Charlotte, NC, United States, 18 August 2022 – Nych Brands, a specialist in designing, marketing, and shipping unique outdoor products, has been named to Inc.’s annual ranking of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies for the third time. The prestigious annual list introduces consumers to the 5,000 fastest-growing businesses in the country, offering a comprehensive look at the success of independent-minded entrepreneurs. Ranking 1,662 on the list with an impressive 3-year growth rate of 375%, Nych Brands was well above the overall 230% median growth for the Inc. 5000 this year.

The Charlotte-based Nych Brands made this year’s list in part due to the success of its three core product lines for backyard needs. The company designed, manufactured, and shipped a record setting amount of products, WamBam Fence (permanent no-dig fencing), Zippity Outdoor Products, (moveable fence and pool accessories), and Enclo Privacy Screens, (outdoor privacy screens to cover trash bins or air conditioning units). Nych Brands sold these lines nationwide last year directly to consumers, as well as through large dot.com retailers like Amazon and The Home Depot.

“We are proud to have earned our spot on Inc’s annual list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies for the third time,” remarked Denise Shields, Co-Founder and CEO of Nych Brands. “Since 2009, we have pioneered a collection of outdoor products for American consumers. Our success on Inc.’s annual list reflects our team’s ability to design, manufacture, and ship unique outdoor products that meet a variety of backyard needs,” she added.

The COVID-19 era, which triggered a rise in online purchases for home improvement products, bolstered Nych’s recent growth. The company successfully navigated unprecedented supply chain challenges in seemingly impossible times, allowing it to place on the Inc. 5000 list in 2022, thanks to the combined efforts of dedicated employees and suppliers.

“We are proud of our achievements. As a small company of roughly 40 full-time employees, we thrive by working as a close-knit team. Because of this, each milestone for Nych Brands is something to be truly celebrated. It’s thanks to the hard work and dedication of our team that we are here today,” Shields said.
