Our Mission

The mission of EMSDC is to stimulate and support economic development with dynamic businesses (Asian, Black, Hispanic, and Native American). While our outreach aims to address both national and international entities our primary focus area includes Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, and Delaware. The council fosters the development of suppliers to better align them with corporations in an effort to initiate growth and opportunity through Supplier Diversity channels.


Our History — The Restructure Affiliate Model

In 2014, NMSDC affiliates, PA-NJ-DE MSDC and WPMSDC merged to become EMSDC, resulting from NMSDC’s strategic affiliate restructuring.

The goal of the restructuring, which reduced the number of affiliates from 36 to 23, was to create an affiliate model that improves the efficiency and cost effectiveness of the network as it relates to delivering on the mission.
