April 3, 200619 yr I suppose you have to include Northern Kentucky but the list looks good to me. No surprises (though I'm sure Akron is happy to be the "top dog" north of Polaris Mall).

April 3, 200619 yr No surprises (though I'm sure Akron is happy to be the "top dog" north of Polaris Mall). What do you mean?
April 3, 200619 yr Cool, 6 companies in Columbus' Fortune 500 roster. Add 7 to that for the Fortune 1000. Add Delaware's Geif and Marysville's Scotts and you have 15 Fortune 1000 companies in the Columbus metro. I suppose you have to include Northern Kentucky but the list looks good to me. Yup, there are several companies, such as Omnicare (ranked 406 on the list), on the other side of the Ohio that would be included in Cincinnati's count.
April 3, 200619 yr No surprises (though I'm sure Akron is happy to be the "top dog" north of Polaris Mall). What do you mean? Akron has the highest rated Fortune 1000 company north of the Polaris Mall (Columbus).

April 3, 200619 yr i can't believe gold star chili did not make that list. actually, progressive is the "top dog" of the upper ranked companies in ohio....if you are a shareholder. take note you ohiophile investors.
April 3, 200619 yr Cincinnati may have lost a F500 company but they might gain 2 the next listing or so. 29 Chiquita Brands Intl. 505 3,904.4 Cincinnati <f500 company in the 90's 31 Cincinnati Financial 517 3,767.0 Fairfield
April 3, 200619 yr Cincinnati Financial was in the Fortune 500 last year, they dropped out this year.
April 3, 200619 yr Dublin and Columbus-based Wendy's and Retail Ventures, respectively, have both been F500 contendors also, the former being listed as one last year. With their spin-off of Tim Hortons, their revenue will could slip, however with the introduction of serving breakfast, that loss in revenue will likely be made up. Retail Ventures (parent company of DSW, Filiene's Basement, etc) has been stagnant as of late. I'm actually surprised Wothington Industries hasn't ranked higher.
May 5, 200619 yr Well, I'm getting around to this topic a bit late, but here are the NKY ones in case someone cares: State Rank Company Rank Revenues ($ millions) City 2 Ashland 239 9,860.0 Covington 4 Omnicare 406 5,292.8 Covington 7 General Cable 716 2,380.8 Highland Heights Kentucky only had 8 Fortune 1000 companies.
