As an active Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), you may apply for Reciprocal Service Status with any of the affiliate councils. Obtaining Reciprocal Service with affiliate councils provides a means for an MBE to expand its business by providing an opportunity to meet with affiliated corporate buyers and MBEs and expanding its professional network.
Once certified, the MBE is not required to certify again with the affiliate council. Instead, the MBE can apply for Reciprocal Service. However, the MBE is required to maintain its active status with its home council.
Just as Minority Certification requires an annual renewal to maintain an active status, Reciprocal Service also requires an annual renewal. Also, please note that Reciprocal Services (certification) will expire on the same day as your home Council Certification expiration date. Check with the affiliate council for reciprocal fees and other details.
