The Initiative for a Competitive Inner City (ICIC) released a report on the impact of recent legislation on Black- and Hispanic-owned manufacturers. The report found that only 0.5% of manufacturers are Black-owned and 0.8% are Hispanic-owned across 13 supply chains. Recommendations focus on increasing access to capital, training, education, and procurement opportunities for minority-owned businesses.

ICIC calls for industry leaders and policymakers to embrace the report’s recommendations for a more equitable manufacturing sector. The initiative aims to address racial disparities and unlock economic prosperity for all. For more information or to participate in discussions, visit the ICIC website.
