The Tampa Bay Business Journal Fast 50 list, now in its 17th year, celebrates the region’s 50 fastest-growing, privately owned, for-profit companies.

Earlier this month, Roger West celebrated its 14th anniversary, several key hires, and was named a Tampa Bay Business Journal Best Place to Work for the third year in a row.
