Women's Business Enterprises (WBEs) are businesses that are at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by one or more women. These enterprises can be found in various industries, including manufacturing, retail, and services. WBEs often seek certification to gain access to government contracts and corporate supplier diversity programs, which can help them grow and succeed in a competitive market. The certification process for WBEs typically involves verifying ownership and control by women. This certification can provide valuable networking opportunities and resources, enabling women entrepreneurs to connect with other business owners and potential clients. Supporting WBEs contributes to economic growth and promotes gender equality in the business world.
