For over five decades, NMSDC’s commitment to meeting the procurement needs of America’s leading corporations, universities, hospitals, and government organizations has changed the trajectory of minority suppliers. As a result, minority business is no longer synonymous with small business.
We’re grateful to our Officers, Executive Committee and Board of Directors for their thought leadership and support in making a difference towards minority business enterprises economic inclusion and parity.
