Recognized for 103% three-year revenue growth among America’s fastest-growing private companies
[Lafayette, LA] August 11, 2026 – Professional Arts Specialty Pharmacy today announced it has been ranked No. 2977 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.
“While I’m proud of this recognition, what I’m most proud of is how we got here,” said Eric Vidrine, Co-Founder and CEO of Professional Arts Specialty Pharmacy. “When we started Professional Arts nearly 28 years ago, our vision was simple: build a pharmacy that puts patients first and never stops looking for a better way to serve them. To see how that vision has grown into the organization we are today is incredibly rewarding. This recognition is a reflection of the trust our patients and partners have placed in us and the dedication of our entire team. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together, and we’re even more excited about what’s ahead as we continue to find new ways to serve our patients and make a difference.”
This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.
