NaVOBA Announces the 2023 Best Corporations for Veteran's Business Enterprises®

The National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA) announces the best U.S. corporations committed to working with veteran-owned businesses in 2023 using data and responses from the 2023 Best Corporations for Veteran’s Business Enterprises® (BCVBE) Survey. This prestigious list honors those corporations that most successfully engage the nation’s certified Veteran’s and Service-Disabled Veteran’s Business Enterprises® (VBEs/SDVBEs) as suppliers. The awards were presented at the 2023 National Business Inclusion Consortium (NBIC) Unity Week in Philadelphia.

“This distinction is especially important since corporate America's eagerness to buy veteran is sound business, not compliance.” said NaVOBA Vice President Mimi Lohm. “Earning this distinction demonstrates an understanding that doing business with veterans isn't just the right thing to do; it's simply a smart business decision... Corporate America is serious about including opportunities for veterans to compete for business. The firms honored tonight just happen to be the best.”

To determine the 2023 Best Corporations for Veteran’s Business Enterprises®, NaVOBA analyzed large companies’ policies relating to the inclusion of veteran-owned and/or service disabled, veteran-owned businesses as part of every company’s supplier diversity program and the way in which that company utilizes its outreach program to attract veteran-owned and/or service disabled, veteran-owned businesses. NaVOBA also explored the company’s procurement infrastructure and allocation of assets, and any supplemental actions the company may have taken to improve its relationship with Certified Veteran’s Business Enterprises® and/or Service-Disabled Veteran’s Business Enterprises®.
