As a bakery owner, I understand firsthand the importance of supplier diversity and how it can transform not just businesses, but entire communities. When these corporations prioritize working with small and minority-owned businesses, they’re creating opportunities for innovation, economic growth, and equity. Being included in supply chains means having the opportunity to scale, reach new audiences, thrive in competitive markets, and it ensures that wealth and opportunities are more equitably distributed. For consumers, this should be powerful reminder to support companies that are committed to building a more inclusive, equitable economy. However, people can’t do better if they don’t know better. By making this information accessible, you’re taking the first crucial step—and that’s absolutely essential.
I also love how you’ve included their community investments in BLACK initiatives specifically which demonstrates how they’re addressing systemic inequities while also showing a commitment to building a future where everyone has the resources and opportunities to succeed. Thank you for your thoughtfulness!!! Keep it up. 🙏🏾🖤
