After acquiring former Top 40 distributor eCompanyStore in 2018, CIC rose 16 places on last year’s Top 40 and predicted its 2019 sales would approach $100 million. The firm didn’t get there, but still executed a year-over-year sales increase thanks to adding new customers and growing wallet share with existing clients. A top goal for 2020 is to complete the eCompanyStore integration.
