DiversityBusiness.com, the nation’s’ leading multicultural B2B online portal, today announced the Div100, the 5th annual listing of the nation’s top 100 African American-owned businesses. Ranging in revenue size from $10 million to over $1 billion, the companies listed on the Div100 represent the nation’s top multicultural earners and challenge the long-held notion that African American-owned businesses are small or insignificant.
At the top of 2004’s Div100 are World Wide Technology, Inc., headquartered in Maryland Heights, MO, with $1.1 billion in 2003 revenues, 9008 Group, Inc., dba ACT-1 Group, based in Torrance, CA, with 480 million in 2003 revenues, and PCG Trading, LLC, headquartered in Peabody, MA, with $300 million in 2003 revenues. The top companies will be honored at a special awards ceremony at DiversityBusiness.com’s 5th Annual Multicultural Business Conference, taking place March 30 – April 1, 2005 at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
“Diversity-owned businesses contribute over $1.4 trillion in sales to the U.S. economy,” said Kenton Clarke, CEO of Computer Consulting Associates International, the company that built DiversityBusiness.com. “It is no longer just “the right thing” to do business with diversity suppliers. Because of recent economic and demographic trends and changes, major corporations are realizing that using a diverse supplier list positively impacts their business.
The Div100
The Div100 is a classification that represents the top 100 diversity-owned (women, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Indian and other minority groups) businesses in the U.S., in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, food service and professional services. Major corporations, government agencies and college/universities throughout the country that do business with multicultural and women-owned businesses use the list The Div100 is produced annually by DiversityBusiness.com, the nation's leading multicultural B2B Internet portal that links large organizational buyers to multicultural product and service businesses.
“The Div100 companies are the heroes of diversity-owned business in America,” said Kenton Clarke. These are the people that have conquered the hurdles and made the sacrifices, building and strengthening their communities, providing jobs and helping to keep the fabric of the U.S. economy together.” Be sure to cast your vote in our poll on this page in what makes a company great to work for http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?webtag=ws-aahorizons&nav=messages&tid=21674&tsn=. Also have you found a major difference in working for a female supervisor as opposed to a male? If so we'd love to her your comments.
