Inc. 5000 List Names AEONrv, Remote Vans to 2026 Honorees

AEONrv, the Reno-based manufacturer of off-road, off-grid RVs, announced it has been named No. 66 on the 2026 Inc. 5000, among the nation’s most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies.

The placement puts AEONrv in the top 1.3% of the 5,000 companies on this year’s list. The company also ranked No. 1 in Nevada, No. 1 in Reno and No. 2 in the Automotive category, after posting 4,231% revenue growth from 2022 through 2025.

AEONrv has become one of America’s fastest-growing manufacturers by rethinking conventional RV design, the company said. It built a new category of adventure vehicle around an all-electric cabin, advanced composite construction with an average insulation value of R-15, intelligent energy systems and a direct-to consumer model made for today’s off-grid traveler.

“Five years ago, we set out to build an RV from first principles, challenging decades of conventional thinking to create something fundamentally better,” said Jim Ritchie, CEO and co-founder of AEONrv. “Ranking No. 66 among the fastest-growing private companies in America validates that vision, but more importantly, it reflects the trust our customers have placed in us. We’re incredibly proud of what our team has accomplished, and we’re just getting started.”

The recognition comes during a period of rapid growth for the company as it expands production, introduces new vehicle platforms, and continues investing in advanced manufacturing in Reno, the company said.

AEONrv Growth Highlights

  • 4,231% revenue growth from 2022 through 2025, the growth rate behind the company’s No. 66
    ranking on the Inc. 5000.
  • Ranked No. 1 in Nevada, No. 1 in Reno, and No. 2 in the Automotive category on the 2026 Inc. 5000
  • Expanded advanced manufacturing in Reno with a 70,000-square-foot production facility employing 60 people, with room to scale output further at minimal additional investment.
  • Profitable in 2025 and growing through an industry contraction: the retail value of industry-wide RV shipments fell 24.6% between 2022 and 2025, according to the RV Industry Association.
  • Net Promoter Score of 96, reflecting exceptional customer satisfaction and owner loyalty.
  • More than 150 adventure vehicles delivered across North America since 2021.

New for 2026, every AEONrv features completely wood-free construction, including lightweight PET foam-core cabinetry made from recycled plastic water bottles. The result is a lighter, stronger and more moisture-resistant vehicle that improves durability, increases payload capacity and advances the company’s commitment to sustainable manufacturing, AEONrv said.

The 22-foot AEONrv starts at $229,500, while the 23-foot 6-inch AEONrv EXT starts at $239,500, plus
options and applicable taxes.

Remote Vans

Remote Vans also announced it has been named No. 205 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, ranking in the top 5% of the fastest-growing private companies in America.

The company also ranked No. 1 in the Cincinnati metro area, No. 4 in the state of Ohio and No. 3 in the Automotive industry category. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle and Patagonia.

“This is proof of what we’ve believed since day one,” said Daryn Hillhouse, co-founder and CEO of Remote Vans. “Adventure travelers don’t want to compromise between capability and comfort, they want a van built for the way they actually live: working, playing, and exploring without limits. Ranking No. 1 in Cincinnati and landing in the top 5% of the entire Inc. 5000 confirms we’re building exactly that, and doing it faster than almost anyone else in the country. This is the next chapter for Remote Vans and for the Rolling Nomads community driving us forward.”

The recognition builds on a string of recent momentum for Remote Vans, including being named No. 1 on Miami University’s 2026 RedHawk50 list of the world’s fastest-growing companies and the appointment of industry veteran Andrew Cooley, co-founder of Storyteller Overland, as president earlier this year. Remote Vans’ growth has also been fueled by strategic backing from The O.H.I.O. Fund, the investment fund supporting high-growth Ohio companies.

This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.
