What is a Fortune 500 company vs a Fortune 100 company? Where do these designations come from?



Answer:
Fortune Magazine does these ratings.

The Top 100 are the biggest companies that Fortune rates.

The Top 500 include the Top 100 and 400 more companies.

They use a set of criteria to place the companies in the list. You can see the criterica in the FAQ link on the Full List.

Take care,
