2005-02-10, Polaris Direct, LLC - Diversity-owned businesses contributed over 1.4 trillion in sales to the U.S. economy and represent some of the nation`s top companies. Women-owned Polaris Direct, a two-year old high-volume lettershop, is one of those companies. They were just named among the nation`s top women-owned businesses.(PRWEB) February 10, 2005 -- Polaris Direct was recently named as one of the top 500 women-owned businesses in the United States by leading multi-cultural B2B online portal DiversityBusiness.com.
The Div500 is the 5th annual listing of the Nation’s top 500 Women-Owned businesses. Ranging in revenue size from $2 million to over $1 billion, the companies listed on the Div500 represent the Nation’s top multicultural earners and challenge the long-held notion that a diversity-owned business is small or insignificant. Diversity-owned businesses contribute over 1.4 trillion in sales to the U.S. economy.
Founded in 2002 Polaris Direct is a high-volume direct mail lettershop serving the Fortune 500. “It’s an honor to be recognized for our rapid growth among diversity suppliers,” said company Director Judith Maloy. “We launched Polaris to fill a growing market demand from corporations throughout the country who recognize the positive impact diversity suppliers have on their organizations. Over the past two years we have successfully provided direct mail solutions for some of the nation’s largest companies.”
The Power of Diversity Business
It is no longer just “the right thing” to do business with diversity suppliers. “Diversity businesses are a growing force in the U.S. economy, and a force to be reckoned with,” said Kenton Clarke, CEO of Computer Consulting Associates International, the company that built DiversityBusiness.com. “This is a whole business segment that can carry its own, that provides jobs and valuable products and services, and generates wealth for their communities. These are the new leaders of American business.”
The Div500 is a classification that represents the top 500 diversity-owned (women, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Indian and other minority groups) businesses in the U.S., in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, food service and professional services. Large organizational buyers throughout the country that do business with multicultural and women-owned businesses use the list.
“The Div500 companies are the heroes of Women-Owned business in America,” said Kenton Clarke, CEO of diversitybusiness.com. “These are the people that have conquered the hurdles and made the sacrifices, building and strengthening their communities, providing jobs and helping to keep the fabric of the U.S. economy together.”
Polaris Direct will be honored at DiversityBusiness.com’s 5th Annual Multicultural Business Conference, taking place in March at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
