DynCorp International Recognized for Commitment to Veteran-Owned Businesses
FALLS CHURCH, Va. (March 29, 2012) - DynCorp International today announced that it has been recognized for the sixth year in a row as one of the United States' 10 best corporations for veteran-owned businesses.
The list, compiled by the National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA) and featured on the cover of the April 2012 issue of Vetrepreneur magazine, recognizes corporations that most successfully engage the nation's three million veteran-owned businesses as suppliers.
"Sixty-five percent of our workforce is made up of veterans and our ties with the veteran community are incredibly strong," said Steve Gaffney, chairman and chief executive officer of DynCorp International. "The dedication and experience that they bring to the job each day - whether as employees, partners or suppliers - enriches the support we provide defense, diplomacy and development initiatives around the world."
"The Top 10 corporations that earn a spot on this exclusive list are the best in the U.S. at recognizing how well the military prepares business leaders through teaching leadership, teamwork, resolve, integrity and ingenuity," said NaVOBA President Chris Hale.
NaVOBA unites the nation's three million businesses owned by military veterans by providing a single voice to advocate for important issues. For more information on the top 10 list, please see the following link: www.navoba.com/top10
