Rock Valley Physical Therapy was recognized recently as one of the 25 “Fastest Growing Companies” in the Quad-Cities (Iowa/Illinois) area.
The award, brought to light by the Quad Cities Regional Business Journal at an Oct. 10, 2024, ceremony at Davenport, Iowa’s Rhythm City Casino Resort, highlighted the region’s most dynamic companies that have made significant contributions to the strength of the local economy.
Honorees were ranked according to revenue growth over two years, with dollar and percentage increases considered. Percentages for the fiscal years 2021-23 were shared confidentiality and tabulated by Honkamp, P.C., to determine overall company rankings.
“This is about honoring those who thrived despite many challenges that stood before them,” said John Lohman, CEO and Group Publisher/Corridor Media Group, which headlines the Quad Cities Regional Business Journal. Despite the effects of a nationwide pandemic, Lohman said those honored by the QCRBJ found creative, insightful, and mindful ways to find success.
“We have that (growth) with these businesses,” Lohman added.
