Sustainability is no longer just a buzzword—it’s a smart business strategy. From reducing environmental impact to meeting ESG goals and supporting veteran-owned businesses, green procurement helps organizations make responsible purchasing decisions without sacrificing performance or professionalism.

At GoVets, businesses can find a growing selection of eco-friendly products sourced from trusted suppliers, many of them veteran-owned. Below are essential green procurement categories every organization should consider.


Why Green Procurement Matters

Green procurement focuses on purchasing products that:

  • Reduce waste and pollution

  • Use recycled, renewable, or biodegradable materials

  • Improve energy and resource efficiency

  • Support ethical and veteran-owned suppliers

The result? Lower long-term costs, stronger brand reputation, and a positive impact on both people and the planet.
