Greetings,

It’s hard to believe we are coming upon the end of the 2022 fiscal year and I am amazed at the progress we are seeing with our local S/M/WBEs. At the end of Fiscal Year 2021, there were 568 certified vendors. To date, we have certified 721 vendors. That is a 26.9% increase. While we couldn’t be more excited about it, we realize, there is still more work to be done.

At the Office of Equal Business Opportunity (OEBO), we have increased our efforts to assist and support small, minority, and women owned businesses by continuing to provide outreach and activities including upcoming workshops in Spanish and Haitian Creole; offering technical assistance and trainings on schedules, bids, and business development; as well as adding a Small Business Development Specialist to the staff. You can be assured, the staff at the Office of Equal Business Opportunity is working on your behalf.

Please remember to check our website for important information about bid opportunities, OEBO programs and upcoming events from our office and our community partners. The website is www.pbcgov.org/oebo. Be sure to follow us on social media at Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and our new Youtube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAoHpQgXr9I.

Sincerely,

Tonya Davis Johnson, Director
