If you still don’t know what being a “certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE)” means for your business, you can ask Brian Ortiz. He founded Trinidad Construction just three years ago and now he is building a solid road to his future with clients like Walgreens, the leader in the retail pharmacy industry. This short time in the business has been enough not only to get amazing success, but also to advise other minority firms: “Don’t be afraid to pursue clients”, he said, and “be creative in the way you build your business”. But where does he come from, what does his company do, and what makes Trinidad different? Ortiz answers this and other questions in an exclusive interview with NegociosNow, on 26th Street in Chicago, just a couple of blocks away from one of the stores that he remodeled for Walgreens.
