TESCRA Gains National Recognition for the second year in a row
TESCRA Named among United States' Top 500

In recognition of the economic power of multicultural businesses, DiversityBusiness.com, the nations' leading multicultural internet site, recently named TESCRA as one of the top 500 diversity-owned businesses in the USA. TESCRA has gained this recognition second year in a row, validating its continuing growth story and stability.

The Div100 is the 7th annual listing of USA's top 100 diversity-owned businesses. The companies listed on the Div100 represent USA's top multicultural earners and challenge the long-held notion that a diversity-owned business is small or insignificant. Div100 members are sought after by major corporations wishing to increase spending with diversity owned companies.

The Impact of Diversity Business

Major corporations wishing to increase market share realize it is no longer just "the right thing" to do business with diversity owned companies. Affected by recent economic and demographic trends and changes, corporations throughout the country have recognized that buying products and services from diversity owned companies positively impacts their business. Diversity-owned businesses contribute over $1.4 trillion in sales to the U.S. economy.

"Diversity businesses and consumers are a growing force in the U.S. economy. Our customers have learnt that we are a sustainable and growing business, capable of providing best-in-class services for their needs", Manoj Gupta, President and COO of TESCRA. "Fortune 1000 companies have come to rely on our expertise to solve their IT problems and over the year we have grown our footprint from a small office in California to a worldwide presence with office in North America, Europe and Asia"

The Div100

The Div100 is a classification that represents the top 100 diversity-owned (women, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Indian and other minority groups) businesses in the USA, in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, food service and professional services. Large organizational buyers throughout the country that do business with multicultural and women-owned businesses use the list.

The winning companies will be honored at a special awards ceremony at DiversityBusiness.com's 6thh Annual Multicultural Business Conference, taking place March 29 – March 31, 2006 at the MGM Mirage in Las Vegas, Nevada.

"The Div100 companies are the heroes of diversity-owned business in the USA," said Kenton Clarke. "While Fortune magazine lists the best companies for minorities to work for, we list the top businesses owned by minorities. These are the people that have conquered the hurdles and made the sacrifices, building and strengthening their communities, providing jobs and helping to keep the fabric of the U.S. economy together."
