For Immediate Release
GoRescue Ranks No. 2414 on the 2024 Inc. 5000 List
For the 4th Time, GoRescue Brands Achieves Prestigious Recognition with Three-Year Revenue Growth of 215 Percent
NEW YORK, August 13, 2024 – Inc. magazine has announced that GoRescue Brands ranks No. 2414 on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. This marks the fourth time GoRescue has made the prestigious list, reflecting its sustained success and impressive growth trajectory.
The Inc. 5000 recognizes the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Notable past honorees include industry giants such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, and Patagonia, who gained their first national exposure on this list.
Brady B. McLaughlin, CEO of GoRescue, expressed gratitude for the recognition, attributing the achievement to the dedication of the team and support from clients. “As an Alabama-based small business, we are grateful for this recognition that was earned by our dedicated team and amazing clients,” McLaughlin stated. “Our 10-year target to deliver 1,000,000 lifesaving impacts nationwide is growing stronger every day with each AED placed, student trained in lifesaving skills, AED inspection, and life saved – each of which is only possible because of God’s favor on our company.”
The 2024 Inc. 5000 class includes companies that have navigated inflationary pressures, rising costs, and hiring challenges while achieving rapid revenue growth. The top 500 companies on this year’s list achieved an average median three-year revenue growth rate of 1,637 percent, and collectively added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
GoRescue Brands, a nationwide provider of AEDs, CPR and first aid training, and related life-saving products and services, has achieved a remarkable three-year revenue growth of 215 percent. This continued success underscores the company’s commitment to enhancing the Chain of Survival through its comprehensive lifesaving solutions.
McLaughlin noted that less than 13% of Inc. 5000 honorees make the list four times, highlighting the significance of GoRescue’s ongoing achievements. “We will continue to rally our resources to deliver exceptional lifesaving solutions to strengthen the Chain of Survival and see more people be ready to respond to emergencies,” he added.

Methodology
Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
