BCS selected second year in a row as

Hot 100 Company

BCS has been selected for the second year in a row as a Hot 100 Company in the state of Tennessee.  The Hot 100 is Business TN magazine’s annual look at Tennessee companies on a roll.  BCS was one of only two Upper East Tennessee companies chosen for the list.

The list is comprised of Tennessee companies that are fast-growing, emerging and brimming with promise and is perhaps best described as a list of “companies to watch.”  According to Business TN magazine, these companies “…represent some of the best Tennessee has to offer in terms of entrepreneurial vision and growth.”  They “…are enriching our local and regional economies, providing jobs and fueling the Volunteer State’s entrepreneurial culture. These businesses speak volumes about the value of free enterprise — especially amid today’s challenging economic times.”

Selection is based on numerous factors, ranging from revenue and employee growth to growth over a period of years, growth as compared to industry average, projected growth and projected pitfalls, among other criteria including editorial judgment.
