Indigenous peoples

We have a global presence, and recognise the importance of both supporting and engaging indigenous people in the countries we work in.

In Canada, we have transitioned from Phase II to Phase III of the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business鈥 (CAAB) Progressive Aboriginal Relations (PAR) programme, and we continue to engage indigenous communities and businesses across Canada.

Our business in Canada has added several indigenous businesses to the supply chain this year, and has laid the groundwork for significant, multi-year investments in indigenous skills development and training-to-employment.

In Australia, we partner with Supply Nation to expand our supply chain to include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander owned businesses across the region. In New Zealand, we work within the Amotai initiative, expanding our supply chain and commitment to M膩ori and Pasifika owned businesses.
