Veteran-owned businesses typically do not need to register with a governing body, unless they intend to work with government agencies or other buying organizations and are seeking additional benefits and incentives for these purposes. To certified as a veteran-owned business, your business must be certified as a Diverse Supplier by the Inclusive Workplace and Supply Council of Canada. IWSCC will verify that your business has at least 51% or more ownership, management, control, and independence by a veteran or disabled person. Learn more at iwscc.ca.
