How to Become a Supplier
We would like to thank you for showing interest in NNC’s Supplier Program. We value the long-term relationships we have formed with companies who share our values and those who are dedicated to satisfying customers’ needs. Over the years, we have created many lasting partnerships with suppliers who share the same commitment to the customer experience as we do.
Our brand image is extremely important to us and we are constantly improving the strength of our supply chain. We take our time to thoroughly evaluate each of our supplier contracts to ensure that each one aligns with NNC’s values. We require our applicants to have honest and transparent business practices and to be actively engaged in self-assessment exercises. We believe that the businesses we associate with should be a mirror image of our own brand.
We consider the following qualities for each and every one of our suppliers:
- Leadership – Ownership that is engaged, accountable and driven to produce results.
- Culture – An honest and admirable business culture with a respectable reputation.
- Financial literacy – Companies that use their financial data to make well-informed business decisions.
- Structure – Scalable businesses that are set up to expand. We want to work with companies that are interested in growth.
- Training and Coaching – Companies that spend time developing and coaching their personnel to encourage positive methods of improvement.
- Brand Ambassadors – We want to work with companies for which their employees are proud to represent their business.
- Work Environment – Companies with happy employees tend to be the most stable. We want to partner with companies with an upbeat work atmosphere because it is conducive to productivity.
- Compensation – We prefer to work with companies with fairly compensated employees as it is an ethical business practice.
- Identity – A company with a distinct and recognizable brand will stand out with a consistent message and presence.
- Community Involvement – Having a positive impact in the local, national and the global community is very important to us.
We expect our suppliers to have a reputation with a degree of humanitarianism.
