ACS Earns 2023 Fastest Growing Company Honors

Air Compressor Services Ranks #18 on Fastest Growing Companies
Air Compressor Services (ACS) was named #18 on Integrated Media Publishing's "Fastest Growing Companies in South Carolina" list. This was a leap from #38 on the 2022 list.
To earn eligibility, companies had to be headquartered in South Carolina, have been in operation for at least three fiscal years, and have reported revenues of over $3 Million in the most recent reported year. Also taken into consideration was employee headcount.
“We are pleased to honor these South Carolina companies that contribute so much to our economy and to making South Carolina a great place to live and work,” said Lori Coon, publisher of Greenville Business Magazine, Columbia Business Monthly, and Charleston Business Magazine. “We congratulate these companies for what they have accomplished.”
Integrated Media Publishing, publisher of Greenville Business Magazine, Columbia Business Monthly, and Charleston Business Magazine, partners with The Capital Corporation to honor these South Carolina companies. The program is in its 22nd year.
"This award speaks volumes to the trajectory of ACS," commented ACS Founder Neal Shade. "We have been selective in hiring what we feel are some of the best people in the United States. Not only does this group care deeply for one another, but it's evident that their talent is directly translating to our bottom line growth."
This is the second consecutive year that ACS has won this award and the fourth total award ACS has received as a "Fastest Growing Company" in the last two years. Earlier this year, ACS received national recognition as an Inc. 5000 company and ranked #4 on the South Carolina "Best Places to Work" list.

About Air Compressor Services
Air Compressor Services. Would a company description really benefit us? What we do is quite literally in our name. It’s who we are. I suppose we could call ourselves “Air Compressor Oil” or “Air Compressor Parts.” But why limit ourselves to mere segments of what we sell? Sure, we could tell you that in addition to servicing air compressors we also sell parts and oil. That we are a 3-time running Inc. 5000 fastest growing company in America and 2024’s #1 Place to Work in Manufacturing, but that makes for a pretty boring boilerplate. Just know that we eat sleep and breathe compressors. We are trying to stock our warehouse full of parts you need. In fact, we have added 6 warehouses just in the past 2 years to keep up with our customer demand. If we don't have it we will source it. And then we’ll order a few more to have on hand next time you come back. We are on a mission to be our customers' #1 vendor. Let us know how we can get there.
