Trusted by organisations across Australia, including those on the ASX, to deliver and report on social procurement:
Over 300 Australian organisations are already using social procurement to lower their risks.
Over the last eight years, Social Traders has recorded:
$1.4 billion+
spent with certified social enterprises by Social Traders members.
Over 13,000
jobs for marginalised communities, and 1 million training hours supported.
68,050 tonnes

$103 million
spent on delivering affordable and accessible community services.
Social Traders has supported the Australian Grand Prix Corporation by providing a credible certification framework that helps identify and engage social enterprises with greater confidence.
That framework reduces perceived risk, strengthens trust, and supports partnerships to be accessible and scalable over time.

Future-proof your business as regulations change.
The regulatory landscape is evolving rapidly, with more focus on the impact business has on people and the “S” in ESG.
Modern slavery rules are tightening. Large organisations must report on risks in their operations and supply chains, and demonstrate action, not just awareness.
Partnering with certified social enterprise suppliers mitigates this risk because they exist to create positive outcomes for people.
Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards are now mandatory. Globally, social is emerging as the next frontier for disclosure. UN SDG alignment, GRI standards, and ESG frameworks are increasingly expected.
Our measurement framework and reporting capabilities help you report every dollar spent with tangible impact outcomes.
The Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures (TISFD) released its beta framework. It will lead to new disclosures on people-related impacts, dependencies, risks and opportunities. As an Alliance Member of TISFD, we're supporting businesses to be match-fit for this next reporting standard.
