Leading free directory of businesses owned by United States military veterans celebrates 5,000 member milestone by launching new integrated SDVOSB search function

Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOSB) Directory
Easily find SDVOSBs by keyword, category, state, city, county and zip code

(Veterans Business Press Release) – Melbourne, Florida – September 9, 2010  – VeteranOwnedBusiness.com, the most comprehensive, user friendly directory of businesses owned by military veterans, active duty military, reservists and service disabled military veterans, today announced the addition of their 5,000th business member. In conjunction with the announcement, VeteranOwnedBusiness.com has also released a new search function that allows site users an easy way to find service disabled veteran owned small businesses* by category, keyword, state, county, city or within a certain radius of a zip code.

VeteranOwnedBusiness.com was released online on Veteran’s Day 2008 and has received over 1,000,000 unique visitors and nearly 6.5 million page views this year alone. Site users include purchasing personnel from small businesses, government agencies and some of our country’s largest corporations. The easy to use interface also allows the average consumer a quick way to search for products and services that are all unique in the fact that they are made by, serviced by and/or sold by United States military veterans.

“This marks a significant milestone for our free veteran owned business directory,” said Brian K. St.Ours, VeteranOwnedBusiness.com’s Founder and President. “Our team has been working tirelessly for a year and a half to reach as many businesses as possible. If we can help even just one VOB or SDVOSB keep their doors open during these very trying economic times it will have all been worth it!”

Membership in VeteranOwnedBusiness.com is absolutely free. Qualifying companies get a detailed online company profile including contact information, directions with a detailed mapping system, product/service description, link to the company’s website and more. Each member’s listing is integrated into VeteranOwnedBusiness.com’s robust search system so each company, product and/or service can be found geographically, by category and even within a certain radius of a zip code.

Military veterans, active duty military, reservists and especially service disabled veterans who own a business are encouraged to visit VeteranOwnedBusiness.com for more information and to sign up for their company’s free business membership.
