Torrance, CA -

Pelican Products, the global leader in the design and manufacture of advanced lighting systems and virtually indestructible cases,today announced Inc. Magazine’s Inc. 5000 list has identified it as one of America’s fastest-growing companies for the third year in a row.

“The universal nature of our virtually indestructible cases and lighting systems has allowed us to open new markets, diversify products and not only survive but flourish in challenging economic times. But our ‘secret weapon’ that makes our business truly “go” is the ingenuity and can-do attitude of our employees, said Pelican Products, President and CEO, Lyndon Faulkner. “This award is as great a testament to their hard work as it is to the superior products they make day in and day out.”

The 2010 Inc. 5000 serves as a unique illustration of the profound changes taking place in the U.S. economy.

The effects of the recession are seen, however, in the median three-year growth rate, which dropped to 96 percent from last year’s 126 percent.
