Rozzi’s Market Inc., doing business as Rozzi’s Catering, is proud to announce its recent certification as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). This certification underscores Rozzi’s Catering’s commitment to excellence, innovation, and economic empowerment, as it joins a distinguished network of women-led enterprises nationwide.
The SBA’s Women-Owned Business certification is awarded to companies that are at least 51-percent owned, controlled, and operated by one or more women. This recognition not only validates Rozzi’s Catering’s leadership but also positions the company to access new business opportunities, including federal contracting set-asides designated for WOSBs. The certification aims to level the playing field for women entrepreneurs and to foster diversity in the competitive business landscape.
Rozzi’s Catering has been a cornerstone of the Kokomo and North Central Indiana community for 50 years, offering exceptional catering services for events ranging from intimate gatherings to large corporate functions. With this certification, the company is poised to expand its reach and contribute further to local economic growth. Rozzi’s Catering credits its certification success to its collaboration with the Hoosier Heartland Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and Ivy Tech Community College Kokomo.
Women-owned businesses play a vital role in economic development, creating jobs, driving innovation, and contributing to community growth. According to the National Women’s Business Council, more than 13 million women-owned businesses exist in the United States, generating $1.9 trillion in revenue and employing more than 9.4 million people. By supporting and empowering women entrepreneurs, communities benefit from increased economic diversity and resilience.
