Top 10 Best Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOSB) Certification Programs Veteran Owned BusinessesVeteran Owned Business Directory

The National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) is the leading non-governmental organization certifying SDVOB/VOBs. Since 1999 when the Federal Government established the Veteran and Disabled Veteran Business classification we have had almost no participation with Corporate spend. The single most cited reason is a lack of a Certification program that is acceptable to them. Well, with the hard work of our dedicated Officers and Board members, we have created the certification program that Corporate America has accepted and the Veterans will be proud to earn. We believe that our certification program is the one opportunity that will benefit every Veteran Business Owner, their family, their community and the Nation by giving them the certification they will need to do business with the leading corporations in America! The National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) is the certification 501c3 non-profit organization for Veteran Owned (VOB’s) and Service Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses (SDVOB’s) that will effectively remove the block from sharing in the supplier diversity spend of Corporate America due to a lack of certification. Comments on the Military and Business Ownership After running my SDVOB company for 17 years, it was clear that we were not included in the spend of major corporations. When we started knocking on doors to ask why, they said they wanted a certification program that met their standards. So, at their direction we created a certification program that meets all of their standards of a true certification. My background as a Military Policeman and a Vietnam Veteran gave me a deep appreciation of why rules exist.
