Redefining the Road magazine, the official magazine of the Women In Trucking Association (WIT), announced today the recipients of the 2024 “Top Woman-Owned Businesses in Transportation.”

“There is a significant economic impact of woman-owned businesses,” said Brian Everett, group publisher and editorial director of Redefining the Road magazine. “In fact, in the United States alone there are nearly 14 million woman-owned businesses accounting for nearly 40% of all small businesses. These businesses are thriving due to the entrepreneurial strengths and skill sets of these driven women owners. Woman-owned businesses employ millions of people and generate some $2.7 trillion in annual revenue.”
Criteria used to identify qualified applicants include majority ownership by a woman, financial stability and growth, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit, according to Everett. Each company was nominated and chosen based upon business success and accomplishments including those related to gender diversity
