Here are the 333 largest private companies based in Greater Washington
The 333 largest private companies in Greater Washington generated more than $186 billion in combined revenue in 2024. Based in Greater Washington, those businesses employ more than 477,000 people in total. The online version of this ranking expands beyond what appears in print; another 233 privately held companies are included in our digital rankings, in addition to the 100 featured in this week's print edition. This week's List is part of a shift in our research methodology and philosophy in 2025, one that will emphasize more data and context for readers while better coordinating the resources available to us and our 46 sister publications under the American City Business Journals flag. We anticipate this effort will identify thousands of new local records — and cumulatively, tens of thousands of new businesses across ACBJ's footprint — this year alone. Information on The List was obtained through Washington Business Journal research or supplied by individual firms through questionnaires that WBJ could not independently verify. In case of ties, companies are listed alphabetically. For information about this and other Washington Business Journal Lists, please contact Data and Projects Editor Carolyn M.
