The Government of Canada launched a new web hub to bring together available resources for organizations buying and selling personal protective equipment (PPE). As organizations re-open for business, they need reliable information on how to buy and sell the necessary supplies required to keep themselves and others safe.
The Supply Hub connects Canadian organizations from coast to coast to coast with federal, provincial, territorial and other resources and information about PPE, including consumer guidance. Buyers will find PPE supplier lists, in addition to guidance to help plan their PPE purchases. As Public Services and Procurement Canada continues to engage with our partners and advisory groups, the hub will evolve to include additional resources.
Quick facts:
- Information for organizations looking to buy PPE includes: best practices to keep people safe, where to find PPE for purchase, consumer advice, and additional health and safety resources
- Information for suppliers looking to sell PPE includes: product specifications, procurement and donation opportunities, and business guidance and programs
- The hub is not limited to federal resources, and it links to resources from provinces and territories, non-profit organizations, and other associations, in addition to resources for Indigenous businesses, and links to lists of Indigenous businesses supplying PPE
