"Supplier Diversity is a business strategy at Procter & Gamble.  Our local membership and support of the South Central Ohio Minority Supplier Development Council is key to the ongoing success of our supplier diversity strategy.  As a result, we strongly encourage our majority suppliers to join the council to ensure they have the resources needed to increase their spending with diverse suppliers."

"When we invest with diverse suppliers, we not only strengthen our innovation and go-to-market capabilities, but we also touch and improve the lives of the women and men who work in these companies – and through them, their families and the communities in which they live and work. This helps expand the impact of our Supplier Diversity strategy, and touches even more lives through the value chains we manage. This is an important way we fulfill P&G’s Purpose."
