Web-Cote Industries
HARDYSTON, N.J. – SLF Manufacturing Company, DBA Web-Cote Industries, a manufacturer of glue traps for the pest control industry, announced national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Women’s Business Enterprise Council Metro NY, a regional certifying partner of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC).
Web-Cote Industries’ President & CEO, Susan Masciarelli, said, “we pursued WBENC Certification for several reasons, but most importantly to strengthen our competitive edge to win contracts with supplier-diversity customers and government programs, gain access to the full network of WBENC businesses and resources, and to build partnerships that both empower our growth and support the growth of other women-owned businesses.”
The WBENC standard of certification implemented by the Women’s Business Enterprise Council Metro NY is a meticulous process, including an in-depth review of the business and a site inspection. The certification process is designed to confirm the business is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by a woman or women, and that the business has appropriate structure and strategic business planning and implementation in place.
By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers, corporations and government agencies demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs, which in turn empowers women as leaders and brings about a more diverse, balanced and sustainable economy.
