When Ryterski Trucking Inc. set out to explore government contracting, they had no prior experience navigating the complex process. Fortunately, the Illinois APEX Accelerator at SIU was there to help. Brenda Henderson, Center Director, worked closely with them to set up their SAM registration and qualify for HUB certification. The experience was overwhelmingly positive—accessible, friendly, and supportive. With APEX’s guidance, Ryterski Trucking Inc. successfully secured opportunities with government agencies, leading to increased business growth.
