Vetrepreneur Veteran Owned Business Directory
Using the Veteran Owned Business (VOB) directory is one more way you can further support both active and retired service members. It’s also a free place for Veterans to promote their own small business (assuming they have one).
The Veteran Owned Business Directory was established by the National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA). You can search the directory by subject keywords and receive a list of Veteran Owned Businesses (VOBs) across the USA. You can also search by entering your zip code and find local businesses in your area.
If you are a Veteran and have your own small business (a vetrepreneur), you can list your business information on the site for free. Vetrepreneurs can upgrade by paying a monthly membership fee of $3.99 to receive a website certification badge and a subscription to Vetrepreneur Magazine (formerly known as Veterans Business Journal).
The Value of a National Veteran Owned Business Directory:
- When you purchase items or services from a Veteran Owned Business, you are rewarding service members even further for service to our country.Shop at a Veteran Owned Business for:
