Our Commitment

Stanley Black & Decker is committed to developing a diverse supply chain that contributes to successful and sustainable businesses. Through inclusive procurement practices we can create long-term value for our clients, while helping us remain agile and ahead of the market.

In alignment with our supplier diversity policy, and with the guidance of our supplier diversity advisory council, we will include at least one diverse supplier in every Request for Proposal conducted in the U.S. To help drive expansion of diversity in our supply chain, we partner with network organizations to ensure we are proactively and continuously connecting with diverse suppliers through outreach and mentorship. These practices help make a positive economic impact on the communities we and our suppliers represent.

What We Do

Supplier Diversity is a business strategy that encourages our supply chain to reflect the diversity of the communities we serve. We do this by:

  • Opening opportunities for diverse suppliers to compete in sourcing events.
  • Exemplifying the value of the supplier diversity process.
  • Holding all suppliers accountable for sustainability and social accountability performance.

We take our responsibilities toward supply chain performance seriously including the sustainability and social accountability performance of our suppliers.
