The Fast Starters list provides a summary of figures and lists the industries growing fastest, as well as other relevant statistical data. Companies can be listed, if they have been listed in previous years, depending on turnover and growth. The Fastest growing company in 2012 is HiLife Health & Beauty - the fifth fastest growing company in last year’s list.
