This edition of the Georgia Minority Supplier Directory has been compiled and assembled by The University of Georgia Small Business Development Center Network.

DIRECTORY FORMAT NOTE: The Georgia SBDC Network has made every attempt to ensure that the businesses included in this directory are current. However, circumstances change and businesses may not have alerted us to their address changes and/or their existence. Format: • The Table of Contents at the front of the book gives the section number and page numbers for each category. • Firms are listed in alphabetical order in each category. • An alphabetical listing of firms with page numbers appears at the back of the directory under Section Three. • See Example (below) for codes used to identify contact person, phone number, and certifications of each business along with a description of the business, previous clients, date the business was established, the number of employees, sales for the previous year and size of facility. Example: If you are looking for a supplier to print a brochure explaining your company’s services or products, go to the front pages (i-iii) and see what categories are listed. You will see a category named Profes- sional - Advertising Agencies. Turning to the pages listed for the Professional - Advertising Agencies section and you will find that suppliers are listed in alphabetical order. A typical entry might appear as follows: THE CHAUCER PRESS, INC. 201 Nowhere Road Durham GA 30602-1155 1 Contact: AE Simmons 2 Phone #: 717-654-2625 3 Certifications: SBA 8(a) N; Georgia Y; DOD N; DOT N; Other N 4 4-5 color offset presses, color separations, bindery, die cutting, mounting and finishing, liquid and film laminating. 5 Clients: Anheuser-Busch; Warner Lambert, Johnson & Johnson, (6 Estab: 1965; 7 Employees: 27 full-time; 5 part-time; 8 Sales: $3,000,000; 9 25,000 Sq.

The listing format quickly allows the purchaser to see: 1 Contact Name 2 Phone Number 3 Certifications: SBA=Small Business Administration; Georgia=State Certification; DOD=Depart- ment of Defense; DOT=Department of Transportation 4 Capabilities (as outlined in a narrative description of the business) 5 Previous Customers 6 Length of Time in Business 7 Number of Employees 8 Previous Customers 9 Size of Facility Noting factors such as each firm’s capabilities, length of time in business, certification status, and size, (e.g., in terms of sales volume, number of employees and size of facility) and carefully considering their implica- tions, the buyer then selects one or more suppliers to evaluate as prospective bidders.
