For the fifth consecutive year, Comau Inc. showed its support for supplier diversity by attending the Michigan Minority Procurement Conference. Being the largest conference of its kind in the United States, the MMPC allows hundreds of quality suppliers to connect with potential buyers in today’s dynamic market place. Some highlights from this year’s conference included a ribbon cutting ceremony with Detroit mayor, Dave Bing and a keynote address made by author Melvin J. Gravely II. Also making an appearance was Tony Brown, the MMDC’s Chairman and Vice President of Global Purchasing for Ford Motor Company. At Comau, we believe that diversity is necessary in building a strong foundation for future success and we’re dedicated to establishing new relationships with minority business enterprises. Forming new, long lasting relationships with a diverse network of suppliers is one of the ways that Comau is able to maintain its competitive advantage and have a positive impact on the local community.

Comau also will be attending the Volkswagen Group of America Chattanooga Operations "Partnering for Success" Minority Business Trade-Show Wednesday, May 26.
