财富增长最快的公司之全明星

Medifast餐饮公司

2012年排名： 46

连续上榜时间：3年

    低脂餐送餐业务已经让Medifast连续三年上榜。该公司于2009年首次在这个榜单上亮相，名列第29位，2010年升至第5位，2011年下滑至第46位。

    Medifast的业务模式推动了近年的持续增长。该公司不仅出售健康餐和小食，也开发个性化特定饮食，并为顾客提供咨询。

    2011财年，公司营收同比增长16%至2.982亿美元。但竞争对手也在快速增长。2011年Medifast没有实现销售和盈利预期。竞争对手、以食物“棒点”库闻名的慧俪轻体（Weight Watchers International）正在迅速抢占这个600亿美元的瘦身产业。

Medifast

2012 Fastest-Growing rank: 46

Years on list: 3

    The business of delivering low-fat meals to people's doors has kept Medifast on the list for the past three years. It first appears on the list at no. 29 in 2009, then rose to no. 5 in 2010 and slipped to 46 in 2011.

    Medifast's business model has helped it grow over the years. Not only does the company sell healthy meals and snacks, but it also develops personal diets and counsels clients.

    For fiscal year 2011, revenue increased by 16% to $298.2 million over the previous year. However, competitors are gaining steam. Medifast missed sales and earnings estimates twice in 2011. And rival Weight Watchers International, known for its "points" system for scoring your meals, has been quickly gaining in the $60 billion weight-loss industry.
