jcpenney’s Multi-Tier Initiatives

With a thriving multi-channel business and a capable supply chain network, there are opportunities for suppliers that are not minority or women-owned. From fixtures to merchandise assortments to value-added services, jcpenney has established multi-tier initiatives (second-tier and beyond) to meet our growing needs. These initiatives are an enhancement to and not a replacement for our existing efforts aimed at increasing meaningful opportunities for minority and women-owned business enterprises to participate as first-tier suppliers.

jcpenney has established procedures enlisting the support of our contracted majority-owned suppliers to ensure fair consideration as vendors of our goods and services.
