Payment Alliance International, the nation's largest privately held ATM provider, has been named to the inaugural Kentucky's Best Bets 2017 list by Dean Dorton Allen Ford, in conjunction with The Lane Report and BIM Group.
PAI is one of only 11 honorees recognized for driving economic expansion and job creation throughout the commonwealth, a press release said.
"There are thousands of privately held businesses here in Kentucky, so we are extremely proud to have the spotlight shine on PAI and its team for business excellence and economic impact," said PAI President and CEO John J. Leehy III. "The hard work and dedication of our employees and the tremendous loyalty and support of all our customers have been the keys to our continued success."
Selection to the list is based on company size, infrastructure reinvestment, employee growth and job creation, and general business excellence, the release said.
In 2017, PAI received the Louisville Business First Business of the Year award in the large-company category, was named to the publication's Best Places to Work in Greater Louisville list for the third straight year, and was included for the fifth time on its Fast 50 list of fastest-growing companies.
