The program salutes as “Blue Chip Winners” those corporations which have generated in excess of $200 million in annual revenues. AmeriQuest reported revenues exceeding $400 million in 2010.

“We have acquired a number of companies since 2004, with our technology platform serving as the centerpiece of our growth strategy. These initiatives have been true to our core mission when the company was founded in 1997 to reduce costs for our client portfolio,” said Douglas Clark, founder of AmeriQuest. “We intend to take the company public and have established reporting and communication capability that adheres to our concept of total transparency and collaboration.”

NJBIZ, New Jersey’s statewide business newspaper, included it on its Top 100 list of largest privately-held companies for three years.
