Genentech is committed to actively fostering a diverse supplier base. We seek qualified suppliers, large and small, from all segments of the business community. This not only helps to meet our business objectives and to foster economic growth within the communities in which we live and work, but it also adds value to the company and helps us enhance our role as an industry leader.

Our vision is to cultivate as diverse a supplier pool as possible in order to maximize the quality and talent available to Genentech. In order to do this, we provide business enterprises — including but not limited to small, disadvantaged, veteran, disabled, hub zone and woman-owned companies — with the business opportunities and information they need to do business with Genentech.

Excellence in supplier diversity will ensure our ability to meet the demands of the changing world and our commitment to be a leader in our industry. By promoting and providing opportunities for small business enterprises, we reap the reward of competitive advantage through successful business relationships. Please read Diversity and Inclusion to learn more about the importance of diversity to Genentech's culture and how we conduct our business.

Genentech requires that your company profile be entered into the US Small Business Administration's (SBA's) Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database before soliciting business with us.

If you have already registered with CCR, please complete the Genentech supplier registration form.

For more information about certification, please contact the SBA.

Genentech currently does not have any programs to assist suppliers in the registration or certification process. However, the SBA hosts workshops and networking opportunities for small businesses. Please check the SBA website for more details.

All purchases are made in a competitive marketplace. Completing the Genentech supplier registration form does not automatically place your company on a "bidder's list," constitute approval of your firm as a Genentech supplier, or obligate Genentech to solicit a request for a quotation or purchase goods and/or services from your company.

A detailed list of products and services we purchase is included in this website. When you complete the Genentech supplier registration form, please make sure you indicate your company's UNSPC or NAICS code. This will help us quickly search for your specific industry in our database.
