Magazine ( View PDF of Award here ). The 2010 award represents Talan’s fourth time on the list  in the 11 years of the award.

Talan was the only Cleveland company to make the list in 2008. In 2009 Talan Products was joined by two other Cleveland based companies – Voss Industries and Tenable Protection Services. Over 5000 nominations were received nationwide. Talan’s growth rate of 177% over the past five years propelled it into the top rankings. “We were thrilled to win again,” said Steve Peplin, Talan CEO, who attended the two-day event in Boston. “We consider it a big deal. And it’s a great ‘Good News’ story for Cleveland. For Cleveland to have two other companies is a really good showing.” Overall, five winning companies represented Ohio.
