Supplier Engagement
At Commerce Bank, we’re dedicated to building strong communities. We believe small businesses are the foundation of a thriving and inclusive community, which is why supplier engagement is a focus for us.

Program Mission
The Commerce Bank Supplier Engagement program aims to establish and build relationships with local, small and certified diverse enterprises to supply Commerce Bank’s operating needs while helping those enterprises grow.
What is Supplier Engagement?
There are a variety of purchasing needs at Commerce Bank. These vary from location to location, but we commonly hire external contractors for building services, landscaping services, office supplies and printing services, and technology services and supplies. With each hiring decision we make, we ensure all suppliers have a fair chance.
The Importance of Supplier Engagement
As a super-community bank, we are deeply involved in the communities where we live and work. The neighborhoods we serve are diverse, and we believe our business practices — from how we recruit team members to which paper supplier we hire — should reflect the community.
We also believe that by hiring local suppliers, we’re able to put resources back into the community to further enrich the local economy.
Eligibility Requirements
We have very high standards for our organization and the products and services we offer. We expect those same high standards from our suppliers.
If you can provide high-quality products while helping us find ways to lower our costs, this could be the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Commerce Bank invites you to register your company in our Supplier Database, powered by Supplier.io opens in a new window.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why register?
Commerce Bank has collaborated with Supplier.io, which has a proprietary database of suppliers. This database is used by many Fortune 500 companies when they are looking for potential suppliers. Completing your profile and keeping it updated will provide buyers with sufficient information about your capabilities.
What information do I need to provide?
Please provide information about your company’s capabilities, products and services, locations, contacts, size and certifications.
Will this lead to more business from buyers?
Registration in the database is no guarantee of any contact, interest or future business. However, registration increases your visibilities to buyers on the platform and makes it easier for them to find your company when opportunities arise.
How often should I update my information?
Buyers rely on the information in the database to accurate and current. It is recommended that you update your profile as your information changes, and at least once a year. If your information is not updated annually, your profile may be marked inactive and no longer visible to our buyers.
