Pine Landscape Center is proud to announce that it is officially certified as a Woman Business Enterprise (WBE) by the State of Kansas, Office of Minority and Women Business Development. This certification acknowledges that Pine Landscape meets the stringent eligibility criteria established by the Kansas Statewide Certification Program (KSCP).
Additionally, Pine Landscape Center was named Kansas Women’s Business of the Year Supplier/Distributor Firm by the Kansas Department of Commerce and was honored at the 38th Annual Awards Luncheon on September 29, 2023.
“Being recognized as a WBE presents an exceptional opportunity to enhance our offerings for current partners and customers while exploring new avenues for future expansion,” stated Kathy Pine, Owner of Pine Landscape Center. “I am excited to have achieved this designation and look forward to propelling Pine Landscape Center to greater heights as a member of the WBE community.”
The state of Kansas’ rigorous certification process involves a detailed review of a company’s ownership, management, financials, and operations to ensure that it is at least 51% owned, controlled, and operated by women. The WBE certification is highly valued by corporations and government agencies that are committed to supplier diversity and seek to work with companies that are owned and operated by underrepresented groups.
