Buy with Impact 2023 Snapshot

Jul 18th, 2024

The progress of social procurement across Canada is unprecedented and encouraging. People and organizations are working together to add value to procurement in multiple ways; through social procurement, Indigenous procurement, sustainable procurement, benefit driven procurement, and
more. Purchasers are increasingly seeking out social value suppliers like social enterprises, diverse-owned businesses, Indigenous businesses, and social purpose organizations to buy from.

As part of the 2024 Buy Social Canada Purchasing Partner renewal process, we asked our Engage Members and Social Purchasing Partners to share updates and stories from their social procurement journey. We heard from 12 organizations about their impacts and experiences in 2023.
