Nornickel’s procurement process is certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
Cooperation with local manufacturers
One of the priority areas in supplier engagement is a focus on procurement from local manufacturers to provide social support for Nornickel’s operating regions. As a result, the volume of materials and services procured from local entities in 2024 increased as follows:
Engagement with local producers to support the sale of agricultural products helps create new jobs, modernise and strengthen the infrastructures of traditional sectors of the economy, and organise high‑quality storage, processing, and distribution of products. This has a positive impact on the economic well‑being of indigenous peoples of the North and encourages their pursuit of self‑development and self‑sufficiency. Such engagement provides a comprehensive approach to addressing sustainable development challenges across the region as a whole.
