The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has launched the Make Onshoring Great Again Portal, a free tool designed to help small businesses identify verified American manufacturers, producers, and suppliers. With a database of more than 1 million domestic suppliers, the searchable portal will empower businesses to source suppliers to support their operations while reconnecting our supply chain with U.S-based production and supporting job creation. “It’s a decisive step toward rebuilding our nation’s strength through stronger supply chains, better products, and a renewed commitment to American industry, small business, and workers,” said SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler. The new portal enables small businesses to support American industry and workers and will also benefit job creators by helping them source domestic supply chains that will deliver shortened lead times, improved quality control, and reduced exposure to overseas disruptions.

The onshoring portal builds on the SBA’s ongoing commitment to revitalizing American industry. Earlier this year, the agency launched the Made in America Manufacturing Initiative, which is aimed at expanding access to capital for U.S. manufacturers, promoting a skilled workforce, and cutting $100 billion in red tape. The agency has also endorsed recent bipartisan, bicameral legislation to double the SBA loan cap for small manufacturers in an effort to supercharge the return of American manufacturing dominance.
