WBENC Certification: The Impact of Supporting Woman-Owned Businesses in Label Manufacturing

At AutoMate Label Solutions, we’re proud to be a WBENC-certified woman-owned business, a distinction that sets us apart in the competitive world of label manufacturing. WBENC certification demonstrates our commitment to excellence and highlights the growing importance of supporting women-owned businesses in the industry. 

As companies seek innovative partners, working with WBENC-certified businesses like AutoMate fosters collaboration, strengthens relationships, and drives higher-quality outcomes. In this blog, we’ll explore the significance of this certification, how supporting woman-owned businesses fuels innovation, and the exceptional value that AutoMate brings to our clients through responsive service, prime packaging and label products, and a dedication to going the extra mile.

What is WBENC Certification? 

The WBENC (Women’s Business Enterprise National Council) is the largest certifier of women-owned businesses in the United States. WBENC Certification is a rigorous process that verifies a business is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by a woman or women. This certification isn’t just a label—it’s a mark of credibility. 

For us at AutoMate Label Solutions, WBENC Certification is more than just a badge of honor. It represents our dedication to leading with integrity, fostering meaningful partnerships, and breaking barriers in the traditionally male-dominated manufacturing sector. As a woman-owned business, we understand the challenges and opportunities that come with building authentic connections with diverse clients—and we use this perspective to provide innovative solutions to meet their needs.
