PDB Group Named Fastest Growing Companies List by Crain’s Chicago Business for 4th Consecutive Year

Updated: May 19, 2023




June 25, 2019 (Itasca, Ill.) – PREMIER Design + Build Group (“PREMIER”) is pleased to announce that it has earned a spot on the Crain’s Chicago Business “Fast 50” list of the region’s fastest growing companies. The designation marks the fourth year in a row that PREMIER has earned a spot on this list of Chicago’s fastest growing companies.


To compile its annual list, Crain’s solicits nominations from companies headquartered in the seven-county metro area with at least $15 million in annual revenue. Privately held companies provide audited financial statements, tax returns and other financial data. Crain’s then works with accounting firm Plante Moran to verify financial documents and revenue.


PREMIER’s president Alan Zocher explained that he and fellow co-founders Alec Zocher and Brian Paul launched the company with a shared vision: “We set out on a simple mission: offer unbeatable client service. Treating our clients as our partners has paid off.”


Brian Paul, executive vice president, credits PREMIER’s talented staff for the company’s year over year growth: “Our people are the best of the best in the design and build industry. We wouldn’t have attained this level of success without their determination and dedication.”


The road to success, however, has had its share of bumps, according to executive vice president Alec Zocher: “We have confronted everything from an economic recession to natural disasters over our 15-year history, yet we have persevered and continued our steady growth. We feel we are prepared for anything.”


Crain’s named PREMIER to its 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 “Fast 50” lists. There are just nine companies in the Chicago area that have been named to this exclusive list for four or more consecutive years.
