Supplier of the Year Award – Recognizes four WRMSDC certified Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs) that demonstrate excellence in their services and products and show growth in sales and job creation. Winners are automatically entered in the NMSDC competition. This is an award for a company, not a person/individual. MBEs will compete against other MBEs in their own Class: Class 1 = annual sales <$1M; Class 2 = $1M-10M; Class 3 = $10M-50M; Class 4 = >$50M.

Who can apply? WRMSDC certified Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs), including Subscription Service MBEs. The MBEs on this list are ineligible to compete this year.

Nomination Process: For an MBE to compete for this award, a Local/Regional or National Corporate Member must nominate them here, then email a letter of recommendation on company letterhead directly to their nominee (the nominee must include it in their application).
