May 28, 2008–Canton, MA–The Boston Business Journal named NESCO as the region’s 37th fastest-growing private company in its second annual Pacesetters awards. Of the 60 companies represented, NESCO was one of nine with 2007 revenues in excess of $100 million. The honor recognizes NESCO's skill in managing a rapidly growing company, showing robust revenues, and creating business strategies that led to success in a competitive business environment.

NESCO made the Pacesetters list based on information gathered and assessed by the Boston Business Journal that detailed the company’s performance from 2004 to 2007. Revenues had to exceed at least $1 million as of 2004.

"NESCO’s success and growth is the result of our associates and their dedication to serving our customers,” said Joseph A. Cincotta, CEO, "We’re proud to be considered a Pacesetter."

"We are very excited to kick off the Pacesetters this year," said George Donnelly, editor of the Boston Business Journal. "This award acknowledges those private companies that skillfully navigate a competitive national and international marketplace and are growing quickly to be leaders in their field."

"Pacesetters was created because it’s important to raise the profiles of rapidly growing companies," said Boston Business Journal Publisher Michael Olivieri. "This will help give guidance to the business community as a whole as to what makes a company successful and who they should be seeking out as potential partners."
