As corporations and businesses face increased pressure to meet decarbonization mandates and drive efficiencies, demand for Budderfly’s services has skyrocketed, leading the company to increase its revenue at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 250 percent since 2017. Budderfly has achieved 165 percent annual recurring revenue growth so far in 2022 with a 36 percent increase in new customer locations.
