September 29, 2007 - CB Richard Ellis Group, Inc. has been named the 33rd fastest-growing company in the United States, according to a new ranking in FORTUNE magazine. FORTUNE identified the top 100 fastest-growing companies in 2007 based on a composite of three-year revenue, earnings per share growth and total return to shareholders.
"As the highest-ranked commercial real estate services provider on FORTUNE's list of fastest-growing companies, CBRE continues to set the pace for the industry," said Chris Brooke, President & CEO, CB Richard Ellis in Greater China. "The depth and breadth of our full-spectrum platform -- with unparalleled resources and top professional talent located both here in Greater China and around the globe -- enables us to deliver best-inclass solutions to meet our clients' needs."
Additionally, CB Richard Ellis was the 10th-fastest growing firm in America among FORTUNE's "Giant" companies -- those large enough to be included in the FORTUNE 1000.
CB Richard Ellis represents approximately 85% of FORTUNE 100 companies and offers an unrivaled suite of services including property sales and leasing; corporate services; property, facilities and project management; mortgage banking; appraisal and valuation; development services; investment management; research and consulting and more. The company was responsible for more than US$224 billion of property sales and lease transactions in 2006, and the management of more than 1.7 billion sq. ft. of commercial properties and corporate facilities.
