by Del Sol, retailer of color changing nail polish, apparel and accessories that change in the sun, is featured in the prestigious ranks of Inc.’s 2011 list for the third consecutive year.
With almost 7 million private companies in America, Del Sol can now claim they are among the fastest growing of them all, as awarded by Inc. Successful businesses such as Microsoft, Jamba Juice and Zappos.com have previously made the rankings, as well as many other successful private employer-based businesses.
“Our biggest goal has always been to spread fun and add to the magic of any vacation or summer day,” said Scott Brady, AVP of Communications for Del Sol. “We’re so pleased that people enjoy our products, which has allowed us to fuel the growth we are now experiencing.”
For Del Sol, the award comes after expanding their color changing T shirts and accessories to multiple ports-of-call, airports and cruise lines – making it the number one clothing retailer in the Caribbean. Moving up 700 spots from their ranking last year, the company has experienced rapid growth that is demonstrated by their ever-expanding product line.
“We’re regularly thinking of new ways we can bring our unique products to consumers around the world,” said Brady. “It’s amazing to see how much we’ve grown, as is evidenced by our latest Inc. ranking. The fun is contagious.”
