Who qualifies as a diverse supplier?
Under our Supplier Diversity Program, we recognize certifications from the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC), the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), United States Small Business Association (SBA), National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC), DisabilityIN, National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) as well as other groups.
Our supplier diversity definitions include:
- Veteran-owned businesses
- Service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses
- Disability-owned businesses
- Small businesses
- Small disadvantaged businesses
- HUBZone small businesses
- Minority-owned businesses, including but not limited to African American, Native American, Asian American or Hispanic-owned businesses
- Women-owned businesses

Tier 2: We maximize and multiply diversity within our supply chain through our Tier 2 program. A Tier 2 supplier is the company that provides Cargill’s Tier 1 (Prime) supplier with products or services that will be provided to the end user. The Tier 2 company’s service or product does not have to be sold directly to Cargill for the spend to be counted in Cargill’s Tier 2 program.
