Issued July 2015 by independent market research firm, Common Sense Advisory, the report titled "The Language Services Market: 2015" ranked GLS as the 46th top-grossing language service provider in the US$38.16 billion global market for outsourced language services and technology, moving up from the 55th spot in last year’s list. GLS was also named as the 11th largest translation agency in all of North America and is the largest in Orange County, CA.

CSA Research, which has published market size estimates and global rankings for the past 10 years, found that the demand for language services continues, and is growing at an annual rate of 6.46%.
