Learn moreSupplier Diversity
P&G’s Supplier Diversity efforts began in 1976 and began a formal 2nd Tier program in 1996. Since 2007, P&G spends more than $2 billion with diverse-owned businesses every year. And in FY20/21 we surpassed $3 billion globally for the first time. Given this high level of achievement P&G is a member of the Billion Dollar Roundtable, a forum of companies spending more than $1 billion annually with diverse suppliers. Below you can find more information about our tracking process, resources to help your company build a Supplier Diversity program, and the councils we partner with to accomplish our goals.
Exponential Business Value
A diverse supply network will out-think, out- innovate, and out –perform a non-diverse supply network. Our diverse supplies are more agile, responsive, innovative, more likely to hire a diverse pool of employees and give back to their community.

Harris & Ford - Supporting & Elevating Communities
The power of P&G’s ecosystem, through and with the business partners can generate a ripple effect, creating an inclusive supply chain, represented by growing spend via the 1st Tier, when P&G buy directly from diverse-owned companies and by 2nd tier supply chains, which occurs when our non-diverse suppliers purchase from diverse suppliers.
To help our suppliers develop their own Supplier Diversity program and grow P&G’s 2nd Tier spending, we have developed a Toolkit, which you can download here.
