Fortune 500
The Fortune 500, in its 70th year, ranks the biggest U.S. companies by revenue. In total, Fortune 500 companies represent two-thirds of the U.S. GDP with $18.8 trillion in revenues, $1.7 trillion in profits, and $43 trillion in market value (as of March 28, 2024), and they employ 31 million people worldwide.
Ever wonder how many Fortune 500 companies are in your state? (Or how often those companies made the cut over the last 20 years?) Our director of infographics, Nicolas Rapp, offers a look at where they're located—and how far some have come (or fallen).
