Collection firm National Recovery Agency announced today that it has been named to the Inc. 5000, a list of the 5,000 fastest growing companies in the U.S.

Compiled by Inc. magazine, the Inc. 5,000 – a list introduced for 2007 — includes the Inc. 500, but digs deeper to offer the most comprehensive look ever at the entrepreneurial engine driving the U.S. Economy. John Koten, CEO and Editor in Chief, in his Congratulation letter to National Recovery Agency states, “This is no small feat. Building one of America’s fastest growing private companies is something you and your associates can be deeply proud of.”

Loren Feldman, Editor of Inc.com, in his letter states, “I am delighted to recognize your accomplishments in earning a place on the inaugural Inc. 5000 list, celebrating the fastest growing companies in America. By being a part of the monumental achievement, your company represents not only the future of business but also the future of our country.”

The award presentation is planned in Chicago on September 6, 2007.
