GNEMSDC Mission

Our mission is to expand business opportunities for Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs), and create mutually beneficial links between Corporate Companies and Minority Business Enterprises. The ultimate outcome is to add economic value to the supply chain while increasing economic opportunities for the minority business community.

The Greater New England Minority Supplier Development Council (GNEMSDC) advances business opportunities for certified Asian, Black, Hispanic and Native American business enterprises and connects them to corporate members. One of the region’s leading corporate membership organizations, GNEMSDC was incorporated in 1975 to provide increased procurement and business opportunities for minority businesses of all sizes.

GNEMSDC is an affiliate of the National Minority Supplier Development Council. GNEMSDC is one of the 23 regional councils represented across the US territories. GNEMSDC serves the six (6) New England States:  MA, CT, RI, ME, NH, and VT.
