Supplier Diversity
Welcome to the Supplier Diversity program
The goal of Supplier Diversity is to reach out to diverse suppliers to build long-term relationships for the purchase of goods and services throughout Colgate-Palmolive.
We seek to partner with diverse businesses that will:
1) Meet or exceed the expectations of Colgate-Palmolive stakeholders for quality, speed, innovation and cost effectiveness
2) Contribute directly to Colgate's 2025 Growth Strategy
You may find it helpful to review the Colgate-Palmolive Annual Report to understand the products manufactured by Colgate and the potential for our use of your product or service.
Eligibility Requirements
Colgate defines diverse business enterprises based on adherence to these US classifications and Global classifications.
If your business meets the above requirements and would like to be included in the supplier diversity database for future opportunities, please go here and follow the outlined registration process.
If we find an opportunity to potentially procure your goods or services, we will contact you for further information.
Your information remains in our active database as long as your information and certifications are up to date.
