February 26, 2025

Across Entegra’s portfolio of 2,500+ supply and manufacturing partners, there are many diverse businesses that offer everything from furniture to fountain soda.

We believe when everyone in society is represented and involved in the supply chain, we all benefit.

Supplier diversity programs widen the pool of potential suppliers and promote competition in the supply base — ultimately improving product quality and driving down procurement costs. This means improved operations for you, and a better experience for your customers.

As a part of our Black History Month recognition, we’re pleased to feature the following Black-owned F&B suppliers that Entegra clients can choose to fill their food procurement needs.
