JLL wins P&G’s first-ever Supplier Impact Award

CHICAGO, May 9, 2024 – JLL announced today that it has received Procter & Gamble’s (P&G) Supplier Impact Award, which recognizes external business partners who champion environmental sustainability, equality and inclusion.

Established in 2024, P&G’s Supplier Impact Awards recognize external business partners who are enabling the industry, consumers and P&G to reduce their environmental footprint, as well as those suppliers who are creating value through equality and inclusion. Winners are selected from more than 60,000 P&G business partners.

For over 20 years, JLL has provided best-in-class solutions to P&G through global specialization with regional accountability to help P&G reach their goals. The JLL team manages more than 100 P&G sites in over 60 countries. Additionally, JLL's shared commitment to promote equality and inclusion in the workplace is demonstrated through various JLL diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs. The Supplier Diversity Program is a key example, which has successfully driven a significant part of the total vendor spend toward diverse providers. The program extends JLL’s values of DEI to the business strategy.

“Sustainability and DEI are at the core of our mission to shape the future of real estate for a better world,” said Neil Murray, CEO, JLL Work Dynamics. “JLL is committed to creating healthier and more sustainable and inclusive workplaces and communities. We are honored to receive this award and are proud to partner with P&G.”

The Global Inclusion Network is another key initiative which JLL aims to provide colleagues with an ally network to coach, guide and assist, as well as raise awareness about working in inclusive environments. JLL also hosts several employee networks and Business Resource Groups that further support the organization’s DEI business objectives, provide a platform for diverse perspectives and connect people across the business.

“On behalf of the account team I’m thrilled to be awarded a P&G Supplier Impact Award,” said Roger Barr, JLL Global Account Executive for P&G. “DEI principles are consistently communicated and reinforced through regular messaging and team huddles. These ongoing efforts ensure that equity and inclusion remain at the forefront of JLL organizational cultures.”

Speaking at the April 25, 2024, event honoring those recognized as Partners of the Year in each business category, Shailesh Jejurikar, P&G’s Chief Operating Officer, said, “Your sustained performance and partnership has enabled our mutual growth. We want to keep strengthening this partnership between our respective companies because we believe it is a source of competitive advantage and leads to growth and value creation.” He went on to add, “We are where we are today because of the efforts of P&G people and our valued business partners, and I thank you for that.”
