Red Stag Fulfillment Recognized as Large Business Excellence Recipient at Pinnacle Business Awards

The Knoxville Chamber is pleased to announce Red Stag Fulfillment as the recipient of the Pinnacle Business Award in the Large Business Excellence category. Red Stag Fulfillment offers eCommerce order fulfillment services, including specialized services such as kitting and light assembly, warehousing, inventory planning, and on-demand order fulfillment and shipping. The Large Business Excellence award, sponsored by 21st Mortgage Corporation, is presented to a non-franchisee company with over 200 employees that has shown remarkable profitability, growth, and stability.

“Red Stag has long been a scrappy, creative, entrepreneurial eCommerce fulfillment company, but now we’re growing up. We’ve seen massive growth these last 24 months and we are determined to keep that momentum going,” said Dusty Holcomb, CEO of Red Stag Fulfillment. “We’re honored to be recognized alongside previous Pinnacle Award winners and can’t wait to keep contributing, in our own small way, to making Knoxville an incredible place for people to work and businesses to thrive.”

Red Stag was created by two Knoxville entrepreneurs who were tired of seeing their inventory misplaced, lost, broken, or simply sitting on the dock unpacked and, therefore, unable to be sold. Not every provider knew how to handle heavy, fragile, high-value objects or how to ship them safely, efficiently, or even in the right packaging — so Red Stag was created to satisfy the gap in the industry. Since 2018, the number of packages shipped has grown over 450 percent and the number of team members employed has grown by more than 500 percent.

“The exponential growth that Red Stag is experiencing is a testament to their quality service. I know the business community is excited about their expansion plans,” said Mike Odom, Knoxville Chamber president and CEO. “I am thankful for the contributions being made by companies like Red Stag that continue to drive regional economic prosperity.”

The annual Pinnacle Business Awards, presented by UScellular, celebrate regional business excellence, honoring outstanding professionals in nine categories for their contributions to the greater Knoxville economy. Winners are selected by the Knoxville Chamber Board of Directors. Over 100 companies were nominated for 2022 recognition.

“UScellular congratulates this year’s winners and is honored to be part of this vibrant business community. We are proud to directly help local businesses thrive by providing wireless and smart technology, high-speed internet, fleet management and data security to enable their goals. As we reflect on winners of the Pinnacle Business Awards, remember that we are all invested in each other’s success. Stay involved, reach out and collaborate, and make the most of Knoxville’s amazing environment,” said Jenn Simmons, business account manager. “Together, we can continue to drive growth in our region.”
