For Every Body Named one of Top Revenue Companies in Utah County


Utah Valley BusinessQ magazine named Utah county candle manufacturer For Every Body as one of the top revenue companies in Utah Valley.

The top revenue rankings are part of a three-part awards list called the UV50 compiled by Utah Valley BusinessQ. In addition to the top revenue companies list, the UV50 highlights Utah Valley’s 10 fastest growing companies, as well as 25 start-ups to watch.

“It is great to contribute to Utah Valley’s growing economy,” said Becky Lunceford Anderson, founder and chairman of For Every Body. “Business is exploding here and it’s an exciting atmosphere to be part of.”

For Every Body began in 1995 when Anderson began producing all-natural lotions and body washes from her kitchen in Provo. Since then, the company has grown to become one of the largest privately held, female-owned candle companies in the United States.

“We have been in Utah Valley since we started,” Anderson said. “I am amazed how many successful companies and business leaders have their roots here.”

Other companies on the top revenue list include Novell, Brent Brown Automotive Group, Omniture and Heritage Web Solutions. The full UV50 list is published in the spring edition of the magazine, available now.

The UV50 award recipients will be honored at a special gala held in conjunction with the Big Business and Technology Expo at the McKay Events Center on March 5-6. The event is sponsored by the Provo-Orem Chamber of Commerce.
