About Us
Our Vision:
Our Purpose:
Sector‑leading expertise in social procurement policy and best‑practice implementation
The Fair Co. is a for-purpose, certified social enterprise and People+Planet First verified consulting firm.
We specialise in Social Procurement and the Social dimension of ESG, helping businesses and government turn Australia's procurement policies into real, lasting impact. That means building supply chains that create opportunities for people who need them most, and workplaces where everyone belongs.
We've been doing this work for the better part of a decade, originally established by the Victorian Government to help organisations bring the Social Procurement Framework to life. Today, we're an independent firm and partner with industry and government across Australia, offering end-to-end social policy support from strategy and tender preparation through to implementation, supplier connections, skills and employment programs, and reporting.
What makes us different? We've sat on both sides of the table, and as a registered charity, People+Planet First verified, we have genuine skin in the game. We don't just consult, we walk alongside you, building your team's capability and helping you turn social commitments into real strategic advantage.
