Corporations, buyers, and consumers want to support women-owned businesses. Make it easy for them to recognize yours.

One of the many benefits of certification through Women's Business Enterprise National Council - WBENC is the ability to use the official Women Owned logo and WBE seal as marketing tools.

These visuals help your business:
• Instantly signal that you are women owned
• Increase visibility in supplier network.
• Influence purchasing decisions from customers who want to support women-owned companies—BONUS you get listed on the website.

You don’t have to figure out certification alone.

If you’re ready to explore WBENC certification and the benefits that come with it, CWE helps make the path clearer — right here in your community.

Learn more on our website and search "WBENC".

CWE is launching two new initiatives designed specifically to support farmer entrepreneurs, and we're looking for experienced farmers and agricultural business experts to help build them.

We're seeking proposals for:

🌱 A customized Business Planning Curriculum that will help participants develop lender-ready business plans

🌱 Concept2Pitch, a program designed to help entrepreneurs craft compelling business pitches covering opportunity recognition, marketing, finances, legal structure, and more

The best programs are built with farmers, not just for farmers.

If you have experience in farming, agricultural business development, entrepreneurship education, curriculum design, or rural economic development, we'd love to hear from you.
