On March 26th,  2010 the St. Louis Business Journal unveiled its Top 150 Privately Held companies in the St. Louis region. Herndon Products is proud to announce it was one of 14 newcomers to this exclusive list coming in at #140.
 
According to the Business Journal, Herndon Products was one of only eight companies on the list that achieved gains of more than 25% in 2009. However, with gains of 78.6% Herndon Products was actually #1 - recording the largest jump in growth of any company on the Business Journals Top 150 Privately Held Companies list.
 
This tremendous growth is attributed to a government defense contract secured by Herndon Products to support the Letterkenny Army Depot in Chambersburg, PA. This government defense contract could generate $277 million dollars in revenue over the next 8 years.

On May 7th Herndon Products was recognized along with the other Top Privately Held Companies at the World's Fair Pavilion in Forest Park where Kim Tucci, Co-founder of Pasta House Company, was the keynote speaker.
