Procurement isn’t just about cutting costs — it’s also one of the most overlooked tools for creating social impact and long-term business value. As ESG pressures mount and supply chains come under greater scrutiny, companies have a powerful opportunity to rethink how and from whom they buy.
Today, we speak with Rashvin Pal Singh, Group CEO of Biji-biji Initiative, and Redza Shahid Ridzuan, Assistant Director of the Innovation & Entrepreneurship Center at Asia School of Business. They share how values-driven procurement can empower social enterprises, why corporates need to move beyond symbolic CSR purchases, and what it takes to build a more inclusive, impact-aligned supply chain in Malaysia.
