Supplier Diversity Initiative

Cleveland-Cliffs’ Supplier Diversity Initiative is reflective of our company’s efforts to develop a supplier base that is representative of the environment in which we operate. We encourage the meaningful participation of Minority Business Enterprise/Women Business Enterprise (M/WBE) and Veteran Owned Business (VOSB) supplier sources whenever possible to provide quality services and materials. VOSBs and M/WBEs are an important facet of the procurement source selection process. Cleveland-Cliffs Steel is a member of the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), Michigan Minority Supplier Development Council (MMSDC), Ohio Minority Supplier Development Council (OMSDC) and Chicago Minority Supplier Development Council (CMSDC)

If you are a VOSB and/or M/WBE supplier and wish to be considered for business with Cleveland-Cliffs Steel, please complete our form and upload applicable certificates.
