It took a three-year average growth rate of 1,238 percent to top this year’s RVA 25 list of the region’s fastest-growing companies.

That mark was achieved by Brandefy, a Henrico-based beauty products  company that launched in 2018 and was crowned this year’s top company at Monday night’s sold-out awards ceremony.

Founder Meg Greenhalgh Pryde started Brandefy as an app connecting its users with alternatives to big-name cosmetics, and has since launched its own product line.

Maybe it’s because I work in data, but if you just post growth percentage from one snapshot in time without showing actual revenue this is meaningless. Oh, and it’s by application only? How much does the winner have to pay to receive their award?
