MIAMI, Aug. 13, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inc. magazine has unveiled its 34th annual Inc. 5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. República, a leading independent cross-cultural advertising, digital and communications agency, has earned its place on the important list for the fifth consecutive year. This achievement wins República status in the Inc. 5000 Honor Roll, an exclusive group of companies ranked on the list for five consecutive years.
"Only a tiny fraction of the nation's companies have demonstrated such remarkably consistent high growth, particularly in the difficult economic environment of the past few years. This achievement truly puts República in rarefied company," said Eric Schurenberg, president and editor-in-chief Inc. magazine.
The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America's independent entrepreneurs.

Recognized for disrupting its industry, República centers on the U.S. general and multicultural markets, as well as Latin America.
