BuyAssociation named as one of Europe’s fastest-growing businesses in FT1000

BuyAssociation has earned its place on the FT1000 for the second year running, ranking as the 381st fastest-growing company in Europe for 2025.

The team at BuyAssociation are delighted to have been recognised once again as one of the fastest-growing enterprises in Europe in this year’s FT1000: Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies 2025, compiled with data research company Statista.

Appearing at number 381 out of 1,000 companies, BuyAssociation has distinguished itself among many thousands of European businesses, thanks to its impressive business and revenue growth over recent years.

The FT1000 list for 2025 ranks companies by compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2020 and 2023. BuyAssociation’s CAGR during this time was 77.7%, with an absolute growth rate of 460.9%.

The company grew its revenues from €825,058 (around £681,684) in 2020 to €4,777,466 (around £3,947,310) in 2023, while its employee numbers increased from seven members of staff in 2020 to 17 employees in 2023.

Commenting on BuyAssociation’s recognition for the second year in a row in the FT1000, chief executive Caroline Marshall-Roberts said: “It’s fantastic to have our growth recognised in the Financial Times. We are proud of how far we have come, and it’s a testament to our team’s dedication and drive that we have continued to drive growth and strong revenues within our business.

“The property market as well as the wider economy have faced a challenging economic period, and our results demonstrate our ability to be agile and stay ahead of the market, which is what our business model is based on.”

More about the FT1000

In order to rank the FT1000, a “complex procedure” is followed, according to the Financial Times. Companies were invited to register for the list via websites created by Statista and the Financial Times, while thousands of others were identified by Statista and contacted for potential inclusion on the list.

Additional criteria also applied, such as minimum revenue amounts in 2020 and in 2023, and revenue growth between the two dates had to be “primarily organic”, or internally stimulated. Each business must also be an independent company, rather than a subsidiary or branch office.

In last year’s FT1000 list, companies with headquarters in these countries were eligible to participate: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom.
