The program has demonstrated increases in orders as well as spend. During the first year we had 81 purchase orders (PO). In 2023 we saw an increase, so far we have 101 POs. Total spend captured with all these purchase orders is $33,481.68.

Continue Using Diverse Suppliers

Supporting the economic growth of the businesses in our local communities can make a significant impact to the long-term well-being to our partnerships. We thank all who have supported this mission and encourage people to continue to choose small and diverse businesses from our local and regional communities when able.

Please continue to use the supplier diversity tools in BearBuy to source individual certified small and diverse suppliers and make your purchases count toward our spend goals. We encourage everyone to purchase from certified small and diverse business wherever possible to support Supplier Diversity and our Anchor Institution Mission.
