Last week, the Sustainable Business Network of Greater Philadelphia marked 25 years of impact with a press conference at Reading Terminal Market. Hesham from Kamal's Middle Eastern Specialities spoke on behalf of the Reading Terminal Market Merchants Association in support of SBN's mission of helping to build profitable enterprises that serve the community, share wealth, and protect the environment.

Just like SBN, we believe that small businesses are the backbone of our economy and building blocks of our communities, and we are proud to support the work that they do building a local economy that works for everyone. Congratulations to the Sustainable Business Network on 25 years!
