Working With a Woman-Owned Business

Woman-Owned BusinessBenefits of Working With A Woman-Owned Business

In observance of National Women’s Month, L’IMAGE Design Studio is proud to be a certified Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE). To be a WBE, more than half of the business must be owned and controlled by one or more women who fit a variety of requirements, such as US citizenship, daily operations responsibility, prove fiscal responsibility, and more.

If you are a Residential Builder, Developer, Architect, Hospitality Firm, or other business that could use interior design, there are numerous and significant benefits to partnering with a women-owned business enterprise.

Federal Tax Incentives

The federal government provides tax incentives for those who business with women-owned businesses (and also minority owned businesses). In addition, tax liabilities are reduced for those projects that are funded with state or federal money (grants or loans) when the woman owned business is your supplier.

Win More Government Contracts

By meeting or exceeding Minority Owned Business participation requirements, as a prime contractor, you will be among the first selected. Many state and federal agencies have diversity spending requirements, and partnering with a WBE will make you stand out from your competition.
