Florida is fourth in the nation, with 26 private companies on Inc. magazine's list of 500 top companies.

The Inc. 500 ranks privately held companies according to averaged year-over-year sales growth over the past three years. The 26th annual issue hits newsstands Aug. 28, but the list is online at www.inc.com/inc5000. This year, the magazine expanded its list to 5,000 companies for the online version only.

Miami-based Global Risk Solutions was the highest-ranked Florida company, at No. 16. Northeast Florida had three companies in the top 500 -- Go Mini's at No. 39 (and fourth in the state) and Uneta at No. 358 (and 18th in Florida) are both based in Jacksonville, and Ponte Vedra Beach-based National Safety Commission is at No. 91 (and eighth in the state).

Go Mini's delivers and stores portable storage containers. Uneta is an online business serving real estate agents, mortgage agencies and lawyers. National Safety Commission offers online driver's education courses.
