FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 15, 2007 -- The Div100 is the 7th annual listing of the Florida�s top 100 diversity-owned businesses. Ranging in revenue size from one million to over 174 million, the companies listed on the Div100 represent the Florida�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

Affected by recent economic and demographic trends and changes, Fortune 1000 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 in business affords the larger Fortune 1000 companies and the small-business owner the information and tools to work together to offer world-class service and best in class pricing to allow a win-win approach for all.� In the words of Charlene Sullivan, President and CEO of DataSavers of Jacksonville, Inc.
