Grow an inclusive supply base

We continue to realize the value that an inclusive supply base brings to our business, our people and our communities. In 2023, we celebrated 25 years of our formal supplier diversity program. The journey is marked by major milestones, including induction into the Billion Dollar Roundtable in 2011, expanding our program outside of the U.S. in 2011 and achieving $2 billion in Tier 1 diverse spend for the first time in 2021.

We have consistently grown our diverse and small business spending and expanded our social and economic impact in 20 markets, including the U.S. In 2023, we achieved $410 million spend in international markets, leveraging relationships with more than 30 NGOs to help advance supplier diversity. We support the development of advocacy bodies who help us discover and certify diverse suppliers and we collaborate with industry partners to encourage the adoption of supplier diversity and inclusion practices in our markets to drive greater impact.
