Buffalo Purchasing Initiative Matchmaking Event

In June, the Buffalo Purchasing Initiative (BPI), an initiative of the Greater Buffalo Racial Equity Roundtable, hosted its 2023 BPI Matchmaking Event at Rich Products Corporation. At the event, business owners of color pitched their company to BPI member organizations that have committed to increasing their spending with local businesses owned by people of color and increasing the number of local businesses they are working with while applying best practices in equity and inclusion to their procurement and purchasing policies and procedures.
