Note: Due to the right of privately held companies to withhold
information, the Business Journal makes no pretense of this
being a complete list of all privately held companies in Los
Angeles County. Unless otherwise noted, the information on this
list was provided by the companies themselves and the Business
Journal takes their word for sales and employee figures.
Companies are ranked by 2003 companywide fiscal year end
revenues. To qualify for this list, a company must be privately
held, for-profit, headquartered in Los Angeles County and not a
division or subsidiary of another company. Cooperatives are
included in the definition of privately held companies.
Advertising agencies, law firms and banks are not included
because they do not report revenues in a conventional manner.
CB Richard Ellis, No. 13 last year, Leiner Health Products Inc.,
No. 27 last year, Artisan Entertainment Group, No. 43 last year,
and Todd Pipe & Supply, No. 60 last year, no longer qualify for
this list. The following companies (ranking in 2003) may have
qualified for the list, but failed to provide information: Roll
International Corp. (20), AppleOne Employment Services (28),
Carmichael International Services (35), Acoustical Material
Services Inc. (52), Turnkey Industrial Pipe & Supply (55),
Ocean Duke Corp. (62), Ernest Paper Products Inc. (81), WSA
Group Inc. (93), Dimensional Fund Advisors (97), Porteous
Fastener Co. (100).
To the best of our knowledge, this information is accurate as
of press time. While every effort is made to ensure the accuracy
and thoroughness of the list, omissions and typographical errors
sometimes occur. Please send corrections or additions on company
letterhead to the Research Department, Los Angeles Business
Journal, 5700 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 170, Los Angeles 90036.
