Seattle Book of Lists / Largest Companies Rankings

Overview

The Puget Sound Business Journal’s Seattle Book of Lists / Largest Companies Rankings is an editorial data product that ranks the biggest firms in the Seattle–Puget Sound region by metrics such as local or global employment and revenue. It is compiled by the PSBJ research team using surveys, direct outreach and public filings rather than a formal awards application. Companies pursue inclusion because Book of Lists rankings are widely used by local executives, investors and dealmakers as a credibility and visibility signal in the regional business community.
