Put Your Sustainable Purchasing Policy to Work

Congratulations on your sustainable purchasing commitments!

If you’re ready to take your organization’s program to the next level, you’ll want to look closely at an emerging strategy in sustainable purchasing — buyer-supplier collaboration — as a way to deliver economic, social, ethical and environmental benefits along your supply chain.

Join us in Vancouver on December 3 for this exciting BuySmart workshop and roundtable. You’ll hear from sustainable purchasing experts, learn about the opportunities and benefits that come from buyers and suppliers working together on sustainable supply chain issues, and engage with your peers to share experiences and ideas for the future.

What You'll Learn

Here are highlights of what you’ll learn from practitioners and peers at this event:

  • Sustainability megatrends and related supply chain risks and opportunities
  • Benefits of proactive buyer-supplier engagement
  • Supplier engagement opportunities and strategies
