InCord Awarded Women-Owned Small Business Certification
(l to r) Meredith Shay and Robin Ritz, owners of InCord
InCord has been certified as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). For InCord, this is a milestone and a transition from its founding years, recognizing Meredith Shay and Robin Ritz as sole owners of InCord, a woman-owned and operated manufacturing business entity, on a federal level.
WOSB provides bidding opportunities for InCord for all state and federal jobs and in many instances, within private industry. In addition, the SBA-backed status will provide InCord an edge over a company that is not certified. The SBA plans to award at least 5% of all federal contracting dollars to women-owned small businesses yearly to support this goal.
“We’re excited to have achieved this certification,” says Shay. “It allows us to demonstrate our values and capabilities to more clients. We can connect with companies who share our commitment to diversity and inclusion.”
InCord is a safety net manufacturer located in Colchester, Connecticut. The company has a 27-year history of manufacturing unique netting systems for the material handling, construction, automotive, amusement, and sports industries. InCord has been honored with Connecticut’s best workplace awards wince 2011.
