The Corporation of the Year Award

Given each year to recognize corporate members and their company’s exemplary achievement in minority supplier development. The three categories are: National Corporation of the Year, Local Corporation of the Year and Advocate of the Year. These awards are regarded as a most significant honor to a major corporation for the utilization of Asian, Black, Hispanic, and Native American suppliers. In winning the award, a company demonstrates exceptional strength in areas critical to maintaining a solid minority supplier development process – policies, procurement particularly growth in dollars and percent, MBE development, leadership and engagement. The national corporations that win this award advance to the NMSDC National Corporation of the Year competition.
