Acorn Distributors Receives WBE Certification from the State of Indiana

Indianapolis—January 7, 2010— Acorn Distributors of Indianapolis recently received its WBE (Woman-owned Business Enterprise) certification from the Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises Division of the Indiana Department of Administration.  Acorn received certification for its wholesale distribution services, which includes paper products, janitorial equipment and institutional foodservices equipment.   

"This certification will allow Acorn to expand what we do best—providing industry-leading products and exceptional customer service—to the many organizations seeking minority-certified providers who can fulfill state contracts," states Jennifer Rosenberg, President. 

A national distributor of foodservice and janitorial supplies, chemicals and janitorial equipment, Acorn was founded in 1976 by Al Wachter and is now led by Rosenberg, who is Wachter’s daughter.

Acorn acquired Cottingham Paper in Columbus, OH, in 2007 to establish a second location from which to serve its Midwestern market.
