Corporate Vision & Top Management CommitmentWalgreens has long demonstrated a strong commitment to the communities we serve. In our increasingly diverse society, part of that commitment is to foster an environment open to the development of diverse entrepreneurs. Our plan is to promote wider vendor participation and in this way help support the economic base of our communities in neighborhoods across all of America. We actively encourage relationships with diverse businesses in purchasing goods and services.
It is our policy to consider vendors and service providers at all times on the sole basis of what is in the best interest of Walgreens, as well as its patients, customers, and employees, without personal favoritism and without discrimination based on race, color, sex, religion, ancestry, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or disability.
In maintaining this policy, it is our goal not only to widen the base of suppliers and contractors who can meet our needs well, but also to strengthen and develop the communities in which we live and work.
We believe these practices are crucial to serving a diverse America and maintaining our century-old tradition of fairness, trust and honesty. We value our reputation as a company that extends services and opportunities fully and equally to everyone.
