Certificate of Women Owned Business from WBENC.

Seattle, Washington, July 10th, 2024—IEH Laboratories & Consulting Group, a family-owned laboratory and consulting services business specializing in food and product testing services, crisis management, and litigation support and more, is proud to announce that on May 29th, 2024, it received national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Pacific region, a regional certifying partner of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). WBENC Certification is the gold standard for women-owned business certification in the United States.

“Achieving WBENC certification isn’t just a milestone; it's a testament to our commitment to excellence and empowerment. This certification opens doors to new partnerships and opportunities, affirming our dedication to advancing excellence and innovation within the food safety industry”

The WBENC standard of certification implemented by the Pacific region, 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.

WBENC Certification combined with professional development and engagement in the WBENC network provides unsurpassed opportunities year-round, both virtually and in-person, for women-owned businesses to grow and expand their business and innovation through events, programming and connections with major corporations and other WBEs.
