Omaha, Neb., Sept. 6, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inc. magazine recently ranked Complete Nutrition No. 332 on its 31st annual Inc. 500|5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The high-end nutritional supplement retailer is the fastest-growing private company from Nebraska on the list.

"Being named to the Inc. 500 list is a great honor," said Ryan Zink, president of Complete Nutrition. "It validates the hard work of our entire staff and reaffirms our commitment to helping people make positive life changes with best-in-class products combined with a consultative approach to health and fitness."

The 2012 Inc. 500, unveiled in the September issue of the magazine, is the most competitive crop in the list's history. To make the cut, companies had to have achieved a staggering minimum of 770 percent in sales growth. Complete Nutrition's three-year sales growth was 1,145 percent.

"Now, more than ever, we depend on Inc. 500/5000 companies to spur innovation, provide jobs, and drive the economy forward. Growth companies, not large corporations, are where the action is," says Inc. magazine Editor Eric Schurenberg.

Complete Nutrition currently has 160 stores throughout the country and plans to add approximately 150 locations throughout the next three years through franchising.

Complete Nutrition offers more than 200 exclusive general health, sports nutrition and weight-loss supplements. Employing certified personal trainers, former strength coaches and others experienced in health and fitness, Complete Nutrition differentiates itself from competitors through its consultative approach to nutritional supplements.
