Greetings
At Verizon, we believe working with suppliers from a variety of backgrounds and experiences helps build long term value for our customers. Supplier Diversity is a business imperative, and we are committed to creating a collaborative, inclusive and equitable supply chain.
We look to our Prime Suppliers (non-diverse suppliers) to advocate for and include diverse suppliers in your supply chains. This includes, as a first step, commitment from leadership to take action and make a diverse and inclusive supply chain a strategic priority.
This Supplier Diversity Playbook is designed to provide you with information to guide you on the actions you can take to be successful and to enable diverse businesses to thrive.
