Mount Prospect, IL — GAM Gear, LLC, a leading manufacturer of precision mechanical components used in factory automation applications has made Inc. magazine’s 2008 list of 5000 fastest growing private companies in America. GAM was recognized based on its three year growth from 2004 to 2007 nationwide and also ranked 16th in the Chicago area for manufacturing firms.

“The Inc. 5000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy—the entrepreneurial part,” said Inc. 5000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The Inc. 5000 gives an unrivaled portrait of young, underreported companies across all industries doing fascinating things with cutting-edge business models, as well as older companies that are still showing impressive growth.”
