Our Mission

To create online opportunities for small business suppliers to sell to corporate customers while promoting supplier diversity and gender balance

Who We Help

  • Small business owners who want to access corporate customers
  • Corporate customers who want to buy from small business suppliers and to create positive social impacts
  • Charities who are creating positive impacts on gender equality

How It Works

Small businesses suppliers can join and list their products and services on our marketplace

Corporate customers can sign up and buy from suppliers on our marketplace

Each transaction funds a verified gender equality project from a charity via B1G1

What We Do

  1. We verify every supplier that they are a registered business. A verified badge is displayed on their profile once they are verified. We have a more comprehensive process for certifying businesses with our certification program.
  2. We find corporate customers and update them on relevant listings using our member matching methodology
  3. We select verified projects from B1G1 that are aligned with UN Global Goals and fund their projects
  4. We provide resources to help small business to win corporate contracts including training, updates on corporate procurement opportunities or changes to procurement policies and interviews with leading procurement officers about what they’re looking for from suppliers

Why We Do What We Do?

We are committed to increasing gender equity in business and entrepreneurship.

Recent analysis in 2019 by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) shows that if women and men participated equally as entrepreneurs,
global GDP could rise by approximately 3% to 6%, boosting the global economy by $2.5 trillion to $5 trillion.

Ellect is addressing the gender gap in business globally with its Global Procurement Marketplace and Global Certification Program.
