Wikipedia's resource on creating a page is quite detailed . Link Below
Be sure to add lots of independent references/sources for the content that you post on the page.

Wikipedia is different from any other online resource website, it's not a web directory.. Creating a page for a business is as easy as 123 here, but it will soon be removed.
Take a look at the is pageIt belonged to a burger shop, and has now been removed. Wondering why? Wikipedia says - "Expired PROD, concern was: Unreferenced article about a local, five restaurant chain. No evidence of business notability outside its corner of Washington State".
What does that mean for you? Your business must qualify notability to secure a Wikipedia page. Read it here - notability.
If you qualify, are you okay to create one page for you? NO. Read about it here
Your page is considered if it has been created by someone else, not you - sorry.
The gist of the matter is, don't waste your time going for it. Concentrate on your business, if it becomes notable in any case, you will automatically find a page for it on Wikipedia.
Thanks

Re: Naina's comment "...if it becomes notable in any case, you will automatically find a page for it on Wikipedia" -- if you run a small/medium-sized enterprise, I don't think you should be waiting for someone else to magically do your marketing/PR for you.
