Share 50 in 250… 2 March 2012
Join SEWM CIC and Cloudberry at the launch of the West Midlands ’50 in 250′ campaign!
This ambitious challenge being led by Social Enterprise Mark is to get 50 large companies to sign up to buy from at least 5 Social Enterprise Mark holders within 250 days.
This campaign has been designed to provide large corporate organisations with a meaningful and easy way to develop an ethical supply chain. For minimal input, you could reap huge benefits in terms of leading the movement of using social enterprises in your supply chain to demonstrate really meaningful corporate social responsibility and enhance your corporate ethical credentials.
Mark Powderham, Head of European Procurement, KPMG, said:
“KPMG is keen to support the 50in250 campaign. We actively seek to include social enterprises, minority-ethnic owned businesses and other target supplier groups in our sourcing activities and tenders. To this end, we are pursuing a 2 tier strategy, including social enterprises in our own tenders for HR & marketing-related goods & services, and engaging with our top 50 suppliers to encourage them to include diverse suppliers in their own supply-chains, both generally and specifically in support of services provided to KPMG.”
