Fourth Straight Appearance on the Inc. 5000, Following Recognition in the Inaugural PERE Credit 100, Reflects Sustained Growth across the Firm’s Commercial Real Estate, Credit and Hospitality Platforms

Peachtree Group (“Peachtree”), a vertically integrated private investment firm active in commercial real estate, private credit and hospitality, today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000, marking the firm’s fourth consecutive year on the magazine’s annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States. Peachtree ranked 3,831 on this year’s list, with three-year revenue growth of approximately 67%.

Sustaining that pace is rare. Research from Stanford Graduate School of Business and IESE Business School found that only about 30% of companies on high-growth rankings return the following year, implying that roughly 3% would be expected to appear four successive years.

For Peachtree, the growth behind the ranking has also meant a larger team and a wider set of career paths. The firm has grown to over 3,700 employees across its investment, lending, development and hospitality businesses, with approximately 10% of open roles filled internally over the past year.

“We’re grateful for the recognition, but what I’m most proud of is the ecosystem behind it,” said Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO of Peachtree. “We’ve built a place where someone can start in one division and build an entire career here, moving from real estate into credit, from underwriting into hotel operations, from analyst to principal, without ever having to leave. Growth on a list is a byproduct. Advancement in people’s careers is the point, and it’s the reason we’ve been able to maintain our expansion through different market environments.”

The recognition follows another milestone for the firm. Earlier this year, Peachtree was named to the inaugural PERE Credit 100, ranking among the world’s leading commercial real estate private credit managers. The annual ranking measures firms based on institutional capital raised for private real estate credit strategies over the previous five years.

“Together, these recognitions tell a consistent story,” Friedman added. “The Inc. 5000 acknowledges our ability to scale a high-growth business over time, and the PERE Credit 100 reflects the institutional platform we’ve built in commercial real estate credit. Both recognitions reveal the same foundation, a team that has earned the confidence of our investors and our partners.”
