Bro. Thomas Waldon
Director of Bigger and Better Business
Bigger and Better Business became the first national program of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. It was first introduced at the Tenth Anniversary Conclave, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (December 1924). When Bigger and Better Business was adopted as a national program, special emphasis was placed on encouraging and promoting Negro businesses. At its inception, the program sought to encourage Negro businesses to improve their business acumen, efficiency and service to the public, to be competitive with other businesses.
The SBN focuses on building relationships that facilitate assisting Brothers in growing their businesses. The network assists chapters in identifying Sigma-owned businesses that offer products and services that Chapters can utilize in the execution of their day-to-day businesses.
