Annual award recognizes fastest-growing companies owned or operated by University of Georgia graduates<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ATLANTA, GEORGIA \u2013 February 5, 2020<\/strong><\/strong> (Business Wire<\/a>) \u2014 PDI, a leading global provider of enterprise software solutions to the convenience retail, wholesale petroleum, and logistics industries, was included in the University of Georgia Alumni Association\u2019s 2020 Bulldog 100 list of fastest-growing businesses owned or operated by UGA alumni. More than 533 nominations were submitted for the 2020 list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to add PDI\u2019s name to the many high-growth, results-oriented companies being honored on this year\u2019s Bulldog 100 list,\u201d said Jimmy Frangis, CEO at PDI. \u201cThis recognition is especially meaningful to me and numerous other UGA alumni working in our corporate headquarters in Alpharetta, GA. I\u2019m privileged to lead such a great group of people. They exemplify our high-performance culture, as do all our employees around the globe, and together have helped PDI grow and be successful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PDI has experienced significant growth in the last three years, increasing its international presence to over 50 countries around the globe and expanding its enterprise resource planning (ERP), logistics management, fuel pricing and loyalty capabilities. PDI also owns and operates one of the top fuel savings loyalty programs in the U.S., Fuel Rewards\u00ae, which last year achieved more than 20 million members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UGA is not the first to recognize PDI\u2019s growth in recent years. The company also made the Inc. 2018 Private Titans 1000, Atlanta Business Chronicle\u2019s 2019 Best Places to Work, and Association for Corporate Growth\u2019s (ACG) 2019 Georgia Fast 40 lists. The latter recognizes the top 40 fastest-growing, middle-market companies in Georgia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2020 Bulldog 100 includes businesses of all sizes from industries such as technology, cosmetics, entertainment and education. Applicants were measured by their business\u2019 compounded annual growth rate during a three-year period. The Atlanta office of Warren Averett CPAs and Advisors, a Bulldog 100 partner since the program began in 2009, verified the information submitted by each company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHosting this year\u2019s Bulldog 100 Celebration in Athens will bring these bright entrepreneurs back to campus to experience how it has grown since their days at UGA,\u201d said Meredith Gurley Johnson, executive director of the UGA Alumni Association. \u201cWe\u2019re excited for the opportunity for these industry leaders to connect with students and share their advice and expertise.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UGA Alumni Association will host the annual Bulldog 100 Celebration in Athens Feb. 8 to celebrate these alumni business leaders and count down the ranked list to ultimately reveal the No. 1 fastest-growing business.
