The chemical supplier claims the #13 spot on the Women-Owned Businesses list, as Austin leads U.S. cities in economic growth
AUSTIN, TX – April 22, 2026 – Lab Alley, a woman-owned supplier of natural, essential, and high purity chemicals based in Austin, Texas, has been named to three Austin Business Journal lists for 2025: #13 on the Women-Owned Businesses list, #68 on the Private Companies list, and #168 on the Largest Employers list. The triple recognition places Lab Alley among a small number of Austin companies to appear across all three categories in the same year.
The Austin Business Journal's annual lists are among the most closely watched business benchmarks in the region. Austin was named the top large city for economic growth in the U.S. in 2025, and the Women-Owned Businesses list recognises majority-woman-owned companies driving that growth. The Private Companies list tracks the highest-revenue private companies in the Austin area, and the Largest Employers list highlights Austin businesses with significant local workforce impact.
"Our presence on these lists isn't just about revenue or headcount, it's about the heartbeat of our mission," said Holly Elabed, CVO and Co-Founder of Lab Alley. "We are driven by a passion to provide our customers with the essential elements they need to innovate.
