South Africa Supplier Diversity Council
what is supplier diversity?
Supplier diversity is the proactive business process of sourcing products and services from previously under-used suppliers. This process helps to sustainably and progressively transform a corporation's supply chain so as to transactionally reflect the demographics of the community in which it operates.
In South Africa, it is the process of integrating a growing pool of competitive black suppliers into corporate supply chains, using targeted procurement and enterprise development to achieve this.

The vision of the SASDC is to be a leading corporate movement promoting supplier diversity development through sustainable targeted procurement and black supplier development. It will be a place where member corporations jointly develop and share knowledge, experience and practices in sustainable procurement and supplier development, and have access to a growing database of certified competitive black suppliers. Most importantly, SASDC is a member-driven organisation.
