Being a small and woman owned company since 1980, Colt Safety understands first hand that the playing field has not always been level.

We understand that promotion of a diverse supplier base generates customer loyalty, higher levels of service, better value and overall public support. In short, it just makes good business sense to partner with diversity companies.

In the early part of this new millennium we began a quest to prove the capacity of diversity companies and to offer partnerships with other small, woman owned, ethnic minority and service disabled American Veteran businesses.

Colt Safety is first and foremost a quality managed warehouse distribution center centrally located in the United States. The added benefit to our clients who are committed to generating wealth through a complete chain of commerce is the fact that we are a 100% diversity company being woman owned and operated.

Colt Safety has been named one of the top 50 diversity companies in the state of Missouri in addition to being a civic-minded company. We have longevity and continuity planning in place for the future of this 30-year-old business.

Women business owners:

  • Represent over 50% of all small businesses
  • Are responsible for $2.6 Trillion annually to the economy
  • Employ 25% more than Fortune 500 companies
  • Stay in business longer than all U.S Firms
  • Employ a gender equal work force
  • Are more apt to offer flex time and education benefits to employees
  • Are growing at twice the rate of all U.S. Firms
  • Yet continue to receive less than 2 % of all government and corporate spending dollars
In 2000, at the request of our largest client we implemented our first ever diversity initiative. When we began tracking our spends we learned that 5.4% of our dollars were being spent with diversity companies. Today, after actively seeking quality managed diversity companies with which to partner, we now boast that over 25% of our general and administrative dollars are spent with diversity companies.

We welcome you to browse our website so that you may learn more about us, our diversity initiatives, our quality managed distribution network and how you, whether a small diversity company or corporate American can partner with us to the benefit of all.
