BURLINGTON, Mass., May 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Profitect Inc., the leading prescriptive analytics provider for the retail and CPG industry, today announced the company experienced 182 percent year-over-year revenue growth. This growth was driven by market momentum and enthusiasm for the company’s award-winning prescriptive analytics solution.

Company Growth

In addition to customer growth, Profitect also grew internally, expanding headcount 137 percent over the past 12 months.

Profitect also reached gender parity within the organization across all levels of the business. Notably, the management team is 50 percent female, with women heading up the company’s finance, marketing, program management, human resources, and customer success departments. Last year, Profitect also announced the addition of Andrea Weiss to its Board of Directors, joining Janice Roberts of Benhamou Global Ventures.

“This is an important milestone that I am honored we have achieved, especially given that we’re a technology company,” said Guy Yehiav, CEO, Profitect. “We strongly believe in a culture of equality and fairness, and I’m proud to say our company and product reflects the innovative spirit of this diversity.”
