November 2, 2026

Read the official launch announcement for more details.

Building a successful consumer brand takes more than a great product. It takes vision, resilience, and the ability to scale in an increasingly competitive market.

At Million Dollar Sellers (MDS), we’ve spent the last decade connecting and celebrating some of the most successful e-commerce founders. Now, we’re bringing that recognition to the broader consumer-brand community.

Introducing Consumer 300™, a new annual recognition program created by MDS and presented by Fulfil, designed to spotlight 300 established U.S. consumer brands based on verified revenue growth and impact.

And the best part? Applications are free and open to eligible brands, regardless of MDS membership.

Three Major Awards. Hundreds of Opportunities for Recognition.

Consumer 300 recognizes exceptional performance through three headline awards:

  • Percentage Growth Leader: Recognizing the established brand with the highest verified compound annual growth rate from 2024 to 2026.
  • Dollar Growth Leader: Celebrating the established brand with the largest verified increase in annual revenue from 2024 to 2026.
  • Breakout Growth Leader: Spotlighting exceptional early growth among newer consumer brands.

Each headline award recipient will receive a prize package valued at more than $30,000, including a year of MDS membership, two gala tickets, and a Consumer 300 media package.

Additional recognition will highlight growth leaders across revenue tiers, product categories, and sales channels, alongside special Council Picks and Consumer Picks.


Why Should Founders Apply?

Consumer 300™ is designed to deliver value beyond the rankings.

Every applicant receives a searchable public brand profile, a backlink to their website, and inclusion in the Consumer 300 directory, even if they don’t make the final list. Additional benefits include access to MDS Ecompreneur events, exclusive webinars and partner offers and opportunities for additional consumer recognition.

Brands selected for the Consumer 300™ will also receive official badges and logo rights to showcase their achievements across their websites, packaging, and press materials, along with a media kit to help amplify their recognition.

For founders who have spent years building their brands, it’s an opportunity to turn measurable growth into greater visibility and credibility.


A Celebration of Founder-Led Success

“We see founders building remarkable consumer brands every day, and much of that work goes unnoticed,” said Eugene Khayman, co-founder and COO of MDS. “We created Consumer 300™ to give those businesses recognition grounded in real growth and to help more people discover the founders behind them.”

That mission builds on nearly a decade of MDS bringing together accomplished e-commerce entrepreneurs.

Today, the MDS community includes more than 750 vetted founders collectively generating over $15 billion in annual revenue.

Consumer 300™ extends that commitment to recognizing excellence across the broader consumer-brand landscape.


Mark Your Calendar: April 6, 2027

The inaugural Consumer 300™ list will be revealed on April 6, 2027, at a special gala in Los Angeles, coinciding with the fifth annual MDS Inspire event.

The celebration will bring together leading founders and members of the consumer-brand community to recognize the businesses shaping the future of commerce.
