Our Organic Growth 25 (OG25) report shines a spotlight on exceptional UK businesses that have demonstrated remarkable growth while consistently achieving profitability. These businesses have been outperforming highly leveraged competitors, including those with a pure inorganic growth strategy (i.e. through acquisition). By showcasing their successes, we aim to provide valuable insights and inspiration to others in the business community.
View the report to find out what businesses made it into our 2023 OG25 cohort. We also share insight into each of the companies and delve into how they've managed to prosper in a time of political and economic uncertainty.
The 2023 OG25 cohort has demonstrated resilience and adaptability in an ever-changing economic environment. While the average growth rate of this cohort (187%) is lower than our previous cohorts (263% in 2021 and 239% in 2020), it is important to remember that this has been achieved against a backdrop of high inflation and rising interest rates.
From a sector perspective, the 2023 cohort is more diverse than the previous cohort in the 2021 report. Business services remains as the most popular sector but now makes up 32% of the cohort vs. 40% in the 2021 cohort.
The list continues to feature businesses from all parts of the UK showcasing the diversity and entrepreneurial spirit present across the nation.
We are proud to have produced this list to celebrate companies growing in the purest sense of the word. As ever, the market has been challenging so the growth achieved by companies in this year’s OG25 is highly impressive. But it is also worth noting the variety of companies included in the list covering a vast array of sectors, showing there is not one route to growth.
