One Stop Warehouse is overjoyed to announce that we have been recognised in the Australian Financial Review Top 500 in 2019, ranking at number 166.
For over 20 years, the Top 500 Private Companies List has been the most authoritative analysis of Australia's largest and best performing private companies.
The 2019 Australian Financial Review Top 500 Private Companies list in partnership with IBISWorld ranks enterprises by annual revenue for the latest 12-month accounting period. The list includes locally-owned private businesses including partnerships, co-operatives, associations and non-listed public companies, provided that the business is not a government body, foreign-owned or majority-owned by a listed company.
This is the first year OSW has been listed on the Top 500 and not only did we make it on to the list but are the No. 1 Australia’s fastest-growing entity out of 500. Achieving a phenomenal annual revenue growth figure of over 108% from last year and attaining a huge revenue of $391m.
"The Top 500 Private Companies List always has a story to tell about the direction in which the broader Australian economy is heading, and 2019's list is no different. The list reveals a schism developing between builders of residential housing, and those in the less troubled commercial and industrial sectors, according to IBISWorld industry team leader Nathan Cloutman. The list also reflects the willingness of private companies to take risks that their listed counterparts, who must answer to shareholders every day, sometimes won't...That entrepreneurial spirit extends down to at least No. 166 on the list, One Stop Warehouse. The 2018-19 revenue of the solar panel wholesaler with its growth of 108 per cent to $391 million makes it the fastest-growing entity on the Top 500 Private Companies list."
