October is Indigenous Business Month (IBM), a national celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses, their innovation, leadership and contribution to local communities. This year’s theme, “Local and Connected”, encourages all of us to think about the businesses around us, the relationships we build, and the impact our purchasing decisions can have close to home.
Businesses and organisations looking to find Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander suppliers can use Supply Nation’s Indigenous Business Direct, Australia’s largest directory of verified Indigenous businesses. You can search by industry, location and service type, making it easier to identify Indigenous-owned businesses that meet your needs. Find local Indigenous businesses.
Council is supporting a Black Coffee event for local First Nations businesses to kick off October, don’t miss out and sign up today.
