Canela Media Continues to Shine in Inc. 5000 Rankings

Canela Media, a prominent multicultural media company driven by technology and innovation, has once again made its mark on the annual Inc. 5000 list, celebrating its inclusion for the second year in a row. This esteemed ranking highlights the fastest-growing private companies in America, offering a glimpse into the most vibrant segment of the economy—independent and entrepreneurial businesses. Notable names like Microsoft, Meta, and Patagonia have previously graced this list, further emphasizing the significance of this achievement.

In the most recent evaluation, Canela Media demonstrated remarkable growth, boasting a significant 67 million monthly active users. This impressive reach underscores the company’s status as a leading resource for advertisers targeting authentic connections with the U.S. Hispanic demographic. Over the past year, Canela Media has revolutionized the landscape with its innovative AVOD loyalty program, Club Canela, designed to reward users through engaging content interactions.

Additionally, the expansion of its proprietary data offering, Canela Audience Solutions, has enhanced targeted advertising strategies, allowing brands to connect effectively with the Hispanic audience across both English and Spanish streaming platforms. This dual-language approach has positioned Canela Media as a strategic partner in meeting the needs of advertisers aiming to engage with diverse communities.

According to Isabel Rafferty Zavala, Co-Founder and CEO of Canela Media, the recognition on the Inc. 5000 list reflects not just the company's growth, but its dedication to innovation and excellence. "We are honored to be recognized among such distinguished company for the second year in a row," she stated. "Our achievements are a testament to our talented team and the cutting-edge technology we bring to our clients. The launch of products like Club Canela and continued enhancements to Canela Advanced Solutions pave a bright future for our brand partners and audiences alike."

The 2025 Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated impressive resilience in the face of recent economic challenges, showcasing an aggregate three-year revenue growth rate of 1,552 percent among the top 500 companies. Notably, these businesses have collectively added over 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy within the last three years, reinforcing the role of entrepreneurship in economic revitalization.

In the words of Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc., this year’s list illustrates the remarkable adaptability and clarity of vision among these companies. "These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy."

Canela Media and its accomplishments will be celebrated during the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, scheduled for October 22-24 in Phoenix. Additionally, the top 500 companies will be featured in the upcoming fall issue of Inc. magazine.
