GEORGIA AND METRO ATLANTA RANKINGS 2016
Georgia Continues to Add FORTUNE 500 and 1000 Headquarters
Bolstered by Atlanta’s corporate dominance, Georgia ranks eighth among
states with the most FORTUNE 500 headquarters, according to the
June 15, 2016 issue of FORTUNE 500 magazine. Eighteen companies
headquartered in Georgia rank among the latest FORTUNE 500 with 30

the previous year, a testament to the strengths of Georgia’s business
advantages. Atlanta ranks third among cities with the highest FORTUNE
500 concentration, behind New York and Houston. With Chicago, these
four cities are the only ones in the United States ranked in the top 20

Rank is by number of FORTUNE 500 Headquarters by city as published by FORTUNE magazine
according to financial statements and company submissions; follows FORTUNE’s previous
methodology of their city ranking. *13 represents the number of FORTUNE 500 Headquarters
with a city of “Atlanta” address as published on the 2016 FORTUNE 500 list; 16 represents
the number of FORTUNE 500 Headquarters located within the entire metro Atlanta area
(29-county MSA). Note: all locations listed on top cities ranking have five or more FORTUNE
500 Headquarters. Locations listed are cities, not metro areas.

for Global 500 company headquarters locations. Since 2009, four new
FORTUNE 500 companies moved to metro Atlanta: First Data (ranked
No. 249), Veritiv (ranked No. 323), NCR (ranked No. 409) and PulteGroup
(ranked No. 433). Georgia-based company BlueLinx Holdings is a new
FORTUNE 1000, further solidifying Georgia’s global financial standing.
As more firms take note of Georgia’s key advantages – technical and
professional talent, transportation and market accessibility, cost of
business and attractive business climate – more move to the state.
