Gross Electric, a leading supplier of lighting fixtures and electrical supplies, is proud to announce its certification as a Women's Business Enterprise (WBE) through the Women's Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC).

WBENC is the largest third-party certifier of women-owned businesses in the United States. Its certification is recognized by more than 1,000 corporations and government agencies in the country, as well as a number of other countries around the world. To become certified as a WBE, a company must go through a rigorous application process that includes an in-depth review of the business and a site visit by a certified WBENC representative.

Gross Electric's certification as a WBE demonstrates the company's commitment to diversity and inclusion, as well as its dedication to providing high-quality products and services to its customers. It also gives Gross Electric a competitive advantage when bidding on contracts with companies that prioritize working with diverse suppliers.

The BENC certification is not just a recognition of Gross Electric's status as a women-owned business, but also a validation of the company's efforts to create a workplace culture that is inclusive and supportive of women. Women make up a significant portion of Gross Electric's leadership team, and the company has implemented policies and practices that promote gender equity and work-life balance. Not only is Gross Electric woman owned, a chief achievement of the  business is that women also occupy leadership positions as Showroom, Electrical Supply and Safety Supply division leaders.  

As a WBENC-certified WBE, Gross Electric has access to a network of other certified women-owned businesses, as well as resources and opportunities to help grow its business. The certification also opens doors to potential partnerships with corporations that are committed to supplier diversity and inclusion.
