WOSB/EDWOSB
Women-Owned Small Business and
Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business
Certified by the Small Business Administration (SBA)
A Women-Owned Small Business and the Economically Disadvantage Women-Owned Small Business certification, defines your business as being owned, operated and controlled by women. The federal government has a goal to award at least five percent of all federal contracting dollars to WOSB Certified businesses each year. If you are a women-owned business, a WOSB/EDWOSB Certification is a valuable marketing tool for your small business, and can give you special consideration when bidding on contracts with the federal government.
Acquiring the WOSB/EDWOSB Certification can expose your business to potential new markets and present you with opportunities that haven’t always been open to you. However, preparing for the application and making sure you have everything necessary to put your hat in the ring can be tedious. Rather than doing it on your own, allow BizCentral USA to assist you.
