The inaugural Supplier Diversity Awards were held on 21 August 2024 at the Pullman Hotel in Tāmaki Makaurau, Auckland. These awards recognised the organisations and individuals paving the way for supplier diversity in Aotearoa.
The judges were deeply moved by Stronghold's incredible journey of growth, marked by a well-crafted strategy, flawless execution, and outstanding outcomes.
The judges could see that JFC’s commitment starts at the top. They have KPIs embedded across the organisation, including a target of at least 8% of total annual revenue to be spent with diverse suppliers.
The judges were impressed at Sarah’s ability to continually challenge her organisation and the industry to improve and achieve more. She is described as a constant agitator – in all the right senses of the word for this kaupapa!
