Procurement initiative a proactive move to close gap in Indigenous engagement

Apr 10, 2018

Joining the push to close the gap on Indigenous engagement is a key driver for Citywide joining leading Aboriginal procurement body, Supply Nation.

Citywide’s membership of Supply Nation reinforces our commitment to diversity both within our workforce and procurement processes. 

Citywide has a history of initiatives designed to help close the gap for Australia’s Indigenous peoples and communities, including increasing Indigenous engagement and employment opportunities through our CSR and community engagement strategy.

Supply Nation Chief Executive Officer Laura Berry says the measure of our collective success will be in the value of transactions between Citywide and Indigenous businesses.

“We are delighted to welcome Citywide into the Supply Nation community and look forward to working with them to develop their supplier diversity footprint,” Laura added.

Supply Nation connects its membership to Indigenous suppliers to build a vibrant and prosperous Indigenous business sector by incorporating Indigenous-owned businesses into the supply chain of Australian companies and government agencies.

Supply Nation’s mission is to facilitate, encourage and promote business between corporate Australia and Government agencies and Indigenous owned businesses.
