The Spokane, Wash.-based Native Business Center operated by Sister Sky Inc. has launched the Washington State Native Business Directory to help drive awareness to Native-owned businesses in the state. The Washington State Department of Commerce funded the creation of the directory, which is being continually expanded. The Native Business Center team conducted outreach in June to the 29 federally recognized tribes to gather information on the Native-owned businesses, which run the gamut from art, food and beauty to construction, consultation and private investigation. At the start of August, the directory included information on 134 businesses.
