Supplier.io, the industry leader in supplier intelligence, is partnering with People and Planet First, a globally recognized collective and verification system for mission driven enterprises prioritizing their social and environmental impact.
This integration brings verified enterprise level data into Supplier.io’s robust supplier intelligence platform, giving organizations deeper insight into their global supplier base and enabling smarter, data backed sourcing decisions that reduce risk and improve supply chain agility.
More supplier data and insights
This partnership supports Supplier.io’s ongoing mission to expand the depth, accuracy, and intelligence of its supplier data, empowering customers to manage complexity, improve resilience and visibility, and proactively mitigate global supply chain risks.
“Enterprises can no longer afford blind spots in their supply chain,” said Aylin Basom, CEO of Supplier.io. “Our customers rely on us to deliver comprehensive supplier intelligence so they can identify risks, unlock opportunities, and ensure continuity in an increasingly volatile global environment. The addition of verified enterprise data from People and Planet First brings new depth to our platform—enhancing our ability to deliver the actionable insights businesses need to source confidently while also enabling alignment with sustainability, ethical practices, and community impact.”
The benefits of more supplier data
Supplier.io’s supplier database includes over 10 million suppliers, 350 million data insights, and $9 trillion in spend history, giving businesses unmatched visibility into suppliers and advanced analytics to build stronger, more resilient supplier networks. Key benefits of the new integration include:
- Identifying and prioritizing verified enterprises. People and Planet First’s rigorous verification process evaluates enterprises against five core standards—Purpose, Operations, Revenue, Use of Surplus, and Structure—to ensure authenticity in their social and environmental commitments.
- Enhancing supply chain transparency and data-backed sourcing. Enhanced data allows customers to identify potential supply chain vulnerabilities earlier, building a deeper understanding of supplier practices that inform responsible sourcing strategies, enrich supplier evaluations, and improve alignment with strategic sourcing goals.
- Supporting local and global impact. Companies using the platform can source from suppliers dedicated to addressing critical societal challenges, ensuring procurement decisions contribute to creating a more inclusive and sustainable global economy.
The partnership with People and Planet First builds on Supplier.io’s 5 million environmental and social certifications and ratings–including CDP Global Climate Scores, Certified B Corporations, Green Business Network companies, Fair Trade, and many more.
