The NFL Supplier Diversity Program is an NFL event-focused diverse supplier program, created to promote equitable and inclusive procurement practices by exposing experienced suppliers to the NFL and Packers vendors/business partners. The program consists of professional development workshops, building strong community relationships and fostering economic growth in NFL markets. It is managed by League consultants who work with committees and partners to identify local, diverse suppliers to participate in the program. A database is maintained of these diverse suppliers for future league use. The program for the 2025 NFL Draft is expected to have more information and registration information available to the public later on this month.?
