State of Social Procurement 2026

Two-thirds of a company's potential for positive or negative impact comes from its supply chain. FTSE 100 companies typically allocate an average of $12 million to their corporate social responsibility (CSR) budgets. But their procurement spending averages $5 billion, which holds tremendous potential for positive impact through social procurement - the process of buying from social enterprises and other, impact-first organisations.  The State of Social Procurement 2026 builds on the expertise of dozens of organizations to surface new insights on social procurement, showcase novel data, and provide diverse country profiles on social procurement.
