Council Enterprises, Inc.



Council Enterprise's role is to support and develop minority-owned businesses by facilitating important connections between corporations and minority suppliers. Our regional Council operates under the umbrella of the National Minority Supplier Development Council, one of the country's leading business membership organizations. It was chartered in 1972 to provide increased procurement and business opportunities for minority businesses of all sizes. The NMSDC network includes a national office in New York and 39 regional Councils across the country. There are 3,500 corporate members throughout the network, including most of America's largest publicly-owned, privately-owned and foreign-owned companies, as well as universities, hospitals and other buying institutions. As a regional Council, we certify and match minority-owned businesses (Asian, Black, Hispanic and Native American) with member corporations that want to purchase goods and services. Through our events we are able to provide opportunities of exchange and partnership to both supplier and corporate members. Our territory includes the state of Wisconsin, Central Illinois and Iowa. Council leadership is provided by President, Floyd Rose, Ph.D.
