Glendale, CA – June 20, 2013 – bTrade, the leading provider of compression and managed file transfer technology solutions, today announced that it has been recertified as a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) by the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC). NMSDC established stringent certification standards which identify bona fide minority businesses, and the regional Councils do the investigation to determine whether a business is worthy of MBE certification. bTrade worked with the Southern California Minority Supplier Development Council (SCMSDC).
SCMBDC performed a combination of screenings, interviews and site visits to establish bTrade’s eligibility. This feature distinguishes NMSDC from other organizations or entities that publish directories which allow “self-certification” as their standard.
MBE certification is accepted and generally required by many of the largest publicly, privately and foreign-owned companies, as well as universities, hospitals and other buying institutions. The nearly 200 corporate members of NMSDC represent a veritable “Who’s Who” in corporate America.
In business for more than 20 years, bTrade is a profitable and growing software technology company with headquarters based in Glendale, California. bTrade continues to enhance its managed file transfer solution, secureXchange, and help organizations with their data security needs.
“As an actively involved and certified MBE, we are certain bTrade is better positioned to achieve great success in all elements of our business,” stated Steve Zapata, bTrade’s CEO and President. “We are honored that the SCMSDC board determined that bTrade’s employees and business processes meet their stringent standards and granted us recertification.”
