Becoming a Supply Nation Registered business
Since 2009, Supply Nation has played a pivotal role in shaping a prosperous, vibrant, and sustainable Indigenous business landscape.
As the country’s premier non-profit organisation, Supply Nation connects over 4,500 verified Indigenous businesses with 750 partners, fostering collaboration between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses and procurement teams from government and corporate organisations. Employing a robust 5-step verification process, Supply Nation ensures authenticity, redirecting spending to support the Indigenous business sector.
A common mission, a common engagement and shared values.
Supply Nation’s dedication to linking Indigenous businesses aligns seamlessly with Wilgee Civil’s mission to pioneer sustainable, inclusive, and progressive civil construction and mining landscapes while bridging traditions and building futures.
Rooted in shared values of integrity, collaboration, excellence, and empowerment, both entities are committed to better integrating Indigenous traditions, wisdom, and heritage into their business practices.
Our mutual goal is to implement inclusive measures, involving the community at each project phase, to honour heritage, empower, and uplift Indigenous communities collaboratively for mutual benefit.
Joining Supply Nation transcends a mere partnership; it signifies a commitment to cultivating stronger relationships with businesses and suppliers who share similar missions and values. Wilgee Civil’s registration with Supply Nation underscores its commitment to community engagement and inclusive practices.
Partnering to uplift Indigenous communities
By partnering with Supply Nation, Wilgee Civil gains a valuable ally in its pursuit of integrating and embracing Indigenous heritage at every step of its operations. Supply Nation’s assurance of authenticity for businesses listed on the Indigenous Business Direct enhances the integrity of the Indigenous business sector.
Furthermore, Supply Nation’s collaboration with government, corporate, and not-for-profit organisations facilitates the development of procurement policies that redirect spending to the traditionally underutilised Indigenous business sector.
This strategic alignment positions Supply Nation as an integral partner for Wilgee Civil, enhancing our collective efforts to pioneer a more inclusive and sustainable future in the construction and mining landscapes.
"Supply Nation serves as a cornerstone in Wilgee Civil's journey towards creating a more inclusive, sustainable, and community-driven approach in the construction and mining sectors. We are proud to be on the path to building partnerships with other Indigenous businesses and to be able to do so with full transparency. We are looking forward to working alongside other companies who share the same values and dedication to pioneering positive change in the communities as us."
