PROVO, Utah (EMWNews) August 21, 2008 —

Seastone, the market leader in specialty gift

card packages and gift card promotional programs, announced today it

was ranked No. 11 among the Inc. Top 100 Consumer Products companies,

and No. 180 on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing private companies

in America. With a staggering three-year growth of 1,300 percent, Inc.

notes that Seastone is growing because gift cards represent a rapidly

developing sector in consumer products, and demand for the personalized

gift card packaging Seastone provides is rising just as quickly.

“Seastone and its Give-A-Gift™

brand have grown tremendously over the past few years, and we’re

pleased to see the company recognized at such a high level,”

said Eric Child, Seastone

President. “Our success indicates that we are

hitting the mark on unique designs in gift card packaging, and we are

constantly innovating to continue to lead this category. Seastone now

counts most of the top 25 retailers in the nation as customers, and we

have confidence this growth trend will continue in coming years.”

The 2008 Inc. 5000 list measures revenue growth from 2004 through 2007.

There are nine Utah companies on the Inc. Top 100 Consumer Products

list, and 83 Utah companies on the entire Inc. 5000 list.

“Our second annual Inc. 5000 continues the

most ambitious project in business journalism,”

said Inc. 5000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The

Inc. 5000 gives an unrivalled portrait of young, underreported companies

across all industries doing fascinating things with cutting-edge

business models, as well as older companies that are still showing

impressive growth.”

Seastone has recently received several honors and awards including

recognition as the second fastest growing company in Utah County by Utah
