Supplier Diversity Program

Minority and Women-Owned Business Development Policy Statement

The Atlanta Braves and Truist Park are committed to expanding business opportunities and strengthening our supplier database with diverse vendors. Our policy is to actively seek out vendors and contractors that can supply the commodities needed for us to achieve our overall business goals and objectives.

The goals of the Atlanta Braves Supplier Diversity Program are:
  • To purchase products and services through vendors that offers quality at a competitive price and timely deliverables.
  • Form strategic alliances with minority and women-owned businesses through joint-ventures, mentoring and financial sponsorships and second-tier purchasing.

As the Atlanta Braves moves forward into future business developments, it is our hope that businesses that partner with us will move forward and prosper as well.

Success is not only measured by the size of a contract, but by the commitment both parties are willing to make for each business to succeed in accomplishing goals and objectives!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is the Atlanta Braves Supplier Diversity Program (ABSDP)?
A. The ABSDP is an initiative designed to increase opportunities for minority and women-owned businesses to participate in the procurement activities of the Atlanta Braves organization.

A. Atlanta Braves follows the established corporate and government standards and definitions for these terms.

Ownership by minority individuals means the business is at least 51% owned by such individuals (Black [African American], Hispanic, Asian or Native American). In the case of a publicly owned business, one or more such individuals own at least 51% of the stock. Furthermore, a minority group member controls the management and daily operations. Additional definitions as listed by the National Minority Supplier Development Council, Inc. include:

  • Black (African American): A U.S. citizen having origins in any of the Black racial groups of Africa.

Native Americans must be documented members of a North American tribe, band or otherwise organized group of native people who are indigenous to the continental United States and proof can be provided through a Native American Blood Degree Certificate (i.e., tribal registry letter, tribal roll register number).

A. Atlanta Braves follows established corporate and government standards and definitions for these terms. "Women-Owned Business" means a business that is at least 51 percent owned by a woman or women who also controls and operates the business. "Control" in this context means exercising the power to make policy decisions. "Operate" in this context means being actively involved in the day-to-day management.

A. Atlanta Braves follows established corporate and government standards and definitions for these terms. ¡°LGBTQ+-Owned Business¡± means a business that is at least 51 percent owned, operated, managed, and controlled by an LGBTQ+ person or persons who are either U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. ¡°Exercises¡± independence from any non-LGBT business enterprise.

Typically, applicants must submit information about the company and its ownership. There are several private sector certifying agencies for minorities and women as well.
