Supplier Diversity

 

Overview

Compass Group makes a concerted effort to seek and select suppliers that reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.

Approach

Our supplier diversity program is dedicated to:

  • Increasing the number of diverse suppliers that provide our customers and units with goods and services.
  • Helping minority- and women-owned suppliers understand the requirements to become nominated suppliers for Compass Group.
  • Ensuring that minority- and women-owned businesses are treated fairly in the qualification, proposal and contracting processes.
  • Acting as a champion for diverse suppliers in the foodservice industry.

Outreach

Compass Group is proud of its efforts to reach and build relationships with minority- and women-owned businesses. Recent efforts include:

  • Partnerships with the National Minority Supplier Development Council, the Women's Foodservice Forum and the Multi-Cultural Foodservice & Hospitality Alliance
  • Implementation of a development program enabling minority business enterprises to increase their scale and scope of work
  • Serving as a cohost for the Chicago public schools' annual MWBE Recognition Awards event
  • A partnership with the Chicago public schools that enables diverse suppliers to extend their contracts outside the Chicago region
