At Orbit Fuels, doing things the right way has always been at the heart of how we operate. Today we are proud to share a milestone that reflects both who we are and where we are headed. Orbit Fuels is officially certified as a Women’s Business Enterprise through the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council, better known as WBENC.
This certification is more than a credential. It is a recognition of the leadership, ownership, and vision that drive our company forward, and it opens new doors for the customers and partners we serve.
What Is WBENC Certification?
The Women’s Business Enterprise National Council is the largest third party certifier of women-owned businesses in the United States. To earn WBENC certification, a business must be at least 51 percent owned, operated, and controlled by one or more women.
The certification process is rigorous. It involves a thorough review of ownership, financial documentation, and day to day operational control to verify that the business is genuinely woman owned and woman led. That level of scrutiny is exactly what makes the certification so meaningful. When a company earns WBENC certification, it is a verified, trusted mark of authenticity.
Why It Matters
WBENC certification is widely recognized by thousands of major corporations, government agencies, and organizations across the country that are committed to supplier diversity. For these organizations, sourcing from certified women-owned businesses is a priority, and certification like ours makes Orbit Fuels a qualified and trusted partner for those programs.
For our customers, this certification means something too. It reflects the values we bring to every relationship: accountability, transparency, and a commitment to doing business the right way. It also allows companies that partner with Orbit Fuels to support their own supplier diversity goals while receiving the reliable, responsive fuel service they need.
Led by Vision
Orbit Fuels is led by Founder and President Felicia Newman, whose leadership has shaped a company built on responsiveness, reliability, and genuine customer care. Under her direction, Orbit Fuels has grown into a trusted provider of diesel delivery, DEF, lubricants, fuel brokerage, and emergency fueling across the Houston area and beyond.
Backed by the logistics expertise and more than 45 years of experience of our parent company, Meiborg, Orbit Fuels combines the agility and personal touch of a growing women-owned business with the infrastructure and dependability of an established industry leader.
A Milestone and a Beginning
Earning WBENC certification is a proud moment for our entire team, but it is not a finish line. It is a foundation. As we continue to grow, this certification strengthens our ability to build meaningful partnerships, expand opportunities, and serve our customers with the reliability they have come to expect from Orbit Fuels.
We are proud to be a certified women-owned business. And we are even prouder of the work we do every day to earn the trust of the customers and communities we serve.
