In 1994, we created a formal supplier diversity program designed to expand our base of minority- and women-owned suppliers. Currently, we do business with more than 3,300 Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (MWBE).
As part of our continuing efforts to become a leader in diversity, we will increase the amount of business we do with minority companies, using our size and leverage to create companies of significant size and stature.
