Most Fortune 500 companies, as well as federal, state, county and other municipal agencies have diversity commitments and goals, or are working to diversify their supplier base by identifying opportunities to do business with women owned companies.
Ann Drake, chief executive officer, DSC Logistics, commented, "Many companies and governmental agencies have supplier diversity programs that facilitate increased opportunities for businesses owned by women and minorities, and these programs generally require certification from a group such as WBENC to provide independent confirmation that these businesses are in fact owned, operated and controlled by a woman. We have seen an increasing trend with our existing and prospective customers emphasizing supplier diversity and the value of doing business with women business owners, so we felt the timing was right to obtain certification."
